I would call ATRS and talk with them about what it is you want. Buying parts piece by piece is just easier to afford or slip by your significant other (lol) than spending a large amount of money all at once.

I inquired with them about sourcing parts myself and having them build it. Their response was that they won't put their 1/2 MOA guarantee on the build in case there is any sort of mess up with specs between parts. I'm sure they'll still produce a fantastic rifle. But for that reason I decided to let them get all the parts for me. It costs more, sure, but it saves me the hassle of import fees, paperwork, etc.
My first build:
ATRS 9" 1:8 300 BLK Heavy Barrel Nitride Finish
ATRS Eliminator Flash Hider
ATRS Heavy Buffer
ATRS Low Profile Gas Block
DPMS M16 Bolt Carrier Group
Daniel Defense Lower Parts Kit
Noveske Chainsaw Lower
Ace upper
VLTOR 5 Position Buffer tube & IMOD stock
JP Handguard
Magpul MIAD Grip
BCM Mod 4 Charging Handle

Fed 110gr supersonics and 208gr subsonics without a hitch first time out, even though the bolt carrier group was a little stiff and needs to be broken in.
Other comments:
Love the look of the Noveske lower, but they do not sell stripped uppers so upper does not match. A minor annoyance. ATRS matched upper and lower would be ideal, but I had maxed out my budget. Maybe next time!
Here is my ATRS build:
.260 Remington
Remington 700 Action
.260 Rem Lilja Heavy Varmint contour barrel
Timmney Trigger

7-9" Versa Pod Bipod

Thanks to Rick, Dustin & everybody else who put this package together for me!
