I'm going to do a Tier 1 Remington 700 build sometime in the near future. Cost really isn't a factor and I realize that going with an aftermarket action would be similar in price. I'm more interested in which will be more reliable.

Parts list:
Manners T4A team with a mini chassis
TT Diamond
18" Proof Research barrel in 6.5 Creedmoor
 
Just get the AW mag cut, then you can run any mag you want.
It's hard to beat the reliability of a genuine AICS mag. I would steer clear of the ARC mags. Even with the LRI followers, they tend to foul up a little too often for my taste.
