I would really appreciate suggestions on how to go about building a good shooting 308 on a budget.
I will be using my rem 700 VS 22-250 to build from. It has an HS Precision stock which i bedded many years ago with steel bed i believe it was.
Suggestions on how you would go about turning it in to a 20"-22" barreled 308 on a budget would be greatly appreciated. Should i just send it away and have a barrel manufacturer re-barrel it? Which barrel manufacturer would you recommend that isn't running 6 months behind? Should i buy a barrel and send it to a gunsmith? Can the HS stock be used again since it was already bedded( can i remove some material and bed again)?
I'm new so any input would be appreicated.
Thanks a lot.
Chris
