    used Rem 700 action vs. new custom action

    I'm not clear on this so I ask for help...what do I gain buying an old Rem 700 for the action & then pay my Smith to true it & then fit it to my custom build per say too just buying a new custom action & having spent almost the same amount. Other than just having a true custom rifle.
