Now you don't have to actually build it yourself per say, especially if you're not really gun savvy. But you can buy all the components that you like, and have it set up by a good smith for a really fair price. Personally in the field of a true sniper rifle, (not a bet a martini huntin rifle) .308 is the only logical choice. You'll do a lot of shooting, and 300 win mag burns up barrels too quick. Start with a rem 700 action as a base. Cheap and reliable ( hell the m24 the army uses is just a suped up rem 700). A Mcmillan stock is a must. Throw some good bases, rings, and get a decent leupold tac scope with mil dot reticle and you're set!

One of the top builders is right here in louisiana. William Roscoe of Louisiana precision rifles. Great work at an affordable price(compared to other builders of the same quality)
