Good video on Youtube about benchrest rifle building

Lew,

I'm not asking to the penny how much that exact build cost - that, I agree, would be impertinent to say the least.

I'm trying to get a feel for how much a truly top-end build costs, with what looks like a pretty 'normal' set of extra options. I can figure out the individual component costs given some time, but all the 'extra' work that makes a gun like that a source of pride to own is something I have next to zero experience with. Forgive me for trying to get an idea for what things cost, and how much I need to save up should I want one of my own. My experience with gunsmiths is they don't have a lot of time for people just calling up asking questions, unless they have money in hand ready to spend.

The cost would most likely be somewhere between $4,000 and $4,500..(no scope).
That is my best guess not knowing for sure what the paint job cost...
