I have a brand new one from APR for sale in the exchange. 6.5 PRC. if youre interested
Saw that, nice stick, but not what I am after.
What part of Texas? It's farther across Texas than it is from New York to Chicago.
If you provide all the parts for the build you might as well just make some of those parts prefit and put it together yourself.
East Central, Roberts is convenient and anything in the Austin and SA areas would work as well.
RIP would be closest in proximity, next DI, next Redbeard if you want to drive there in person and drop off and pick up in person. Robert’s may be closer than redbeard but… Houston.
South Texas Armament out of Uvalde, TX builds some REALLY nice rifles. I follow them on InstaGram, and they're really cool. I want to get them to build a .25CM for me one of these days.

Roberts.
Although, I don’t understand why anyone wouldn’t just put together what they wanted themself.

Im with Spife and Crews on this.
Get something that takes prefits.
Order to length from @AccuSol-ERN or PVA. (There may be others and them I know).
Or a 20” Proof.
My PVA barrel is good.
My Ern barrel is stupid good.
Like in the .2s often and otherwise the .3s. And Im a half-ass group shooter and reloader.
New Proof 22” shot well last night too.
Much better than expected, like 1/2 MOA better at 100….
You gonna do the TX thing and build a 300WM for those mouse deer?
Im an Origin liker.
CRF is tits.
Only way to logically skip the above is to build on a pre-64 in nice walnut…

If the OP wants to have a rifle assembled by a highly experienced expert builder machinist- I support his choice.
Roberts Precision, his work is art, his guns shoot lights out. He has done several builds for me and his stuff is fantastic.
I have no idea what his waits times are right now, but his stuff is very much worth the time and money.

This will be a 16.5" 308 to run a TBAC 7 on full time for use in the deer stand on pigs, deer and Aoudad. I like the idea of someone better than myself putting it together even if that means another $1K and 2-3 months time.
Thanks for the kind words.Im with Spife and Crews on this.

To the OP, pick a complete product, DIY parts, or just services from a reputable builder and you will be happy. There are a ton of great builders out there. Keep us posted.

It's a TBAC Magnus-HUB, but, kinda like this...?
And you can buy these off the shelf ready to go... 16" Christensen Arms MPR .308 Win. Has the 1:10 twist for the heavies, and as you can see below, it really likes the heavies. That was a load I threw together 10 years ago for one of my other .308's and just wanted to see how well it would shoot it...Apparently it likes it.
I like this! I wish it had a metal MLOK rail, I find carbon on a sporting rifle kind of tacky, but I could get past it. Did it come in under 7lbs bare gun as advertised?
Never weighed it, honestly, but it was stupid lightweight bare out of the box with nothing on it. And even with the heavy K624i and the big Magnus can, it's still very lightweight and maneuverable.
I do recommend swapping out 2 things straight out of the box... The cheap plastic B5 grip that comes on it, and the cheap plastic magazine that comes with it. I went with the same grips I put on all my AR15's so it felt familiar, which is an Ergo Suregrip (ambi version), and an MDT 10 round .308 Win magazine without the front binder plate for longer COAL of the cartridge.
