Ryan: If you are watching your pennies, then you can't beat Chuck in Denver for the headspace and potential set back problem. The rust bluing will have to be contracted out to the likes of Glenrock Blue in Glenrock Wyoming. Their's is some of the best work I've ever seen...though not sky high, they are not cheap either. If you want custom all the way check out Winston Elrod in Chesaning Michigan. I own several rifles refurbed by him and he does it in such a way, they look old and lovingly cared for but not new or redone! HTH JERRY
