Yes I just put together a 375 HH mag I used them for the barreled action and sent it out for the rest of the stuff.  Every one that had it to do ant work said it was the best they had seen out of their factory.   I shot it using factory fodder and all stayed in the 1 inch group size.  The only thing I had go wrong was it refused to pick up the last round.  I will be sending it back to them soon.  The stand behind there work.  Thake a look at some of the pictures of my rifle.  I would have them build me another rifle no problemo.

Their rifles with the Montana action are very closely along the lines of the Winchester Model 70. Virtually any stock that will fit a Winchester 70 will fit these actions with little work.  The actions are all investment cast, same as Ruger.  When they first came out they made you a screaming deal on an action just to get their name out there. Go to their webpage, they should have prices posted as I recall.  Wayne at Oregunsmithing builds customs off of them all the time with no complaints as far as I know...he has a web page as well.

I'd post both links for you but I have so many in favorites I can't see em at the moment. Do a google search you'll find them.

Thanks for the help..  Take it they offer stocks as well and just not action & barrel..  I guess what I am getting at is maybe a 470 capstick to match my other safari express.

I don't think they do any stocking(I may be wrong).  I used an Accurate Innovations stock; my wood (myrtle) and their design.  What I liked about their stocks in the aluminum chassis and the reis has titaniun pins in it(no chance of splitting).   That would be a bonus if you are going 470 Capstick
