I'm looking to build a custom rifle to compete in F Class events. I'd like to have it chambered in 6.5 x 47. I've done some reading and research, and the components I'm considering are:
Stock - Robertson composite
Action - Bat
Trigger - Jewell
Barrel - Broughton
Optics - Nightforce
Obviously the components are a personal choice, but can I order all the above and simply have a decent local gunsmith assemble the rifle? What do I have to take into consideration for the build? Ie stock inletting for the action, type of bedding, reaming of the barrel???! Sorry, I know these may seem like simple questions, but I am hesitant to go ahead with a custom build if I can't access a local gunsmith who could complete the build.
Thanks for any help !
