I am going to do it .... Rem 700 LTR clone in 300 Whisper (or fireball)

I have put this off way too long..... Here is what I have planned...

Buy a 223 Barreled action (AKA cheap Rem 700 in 223)
- perhaps one of the new Rem 700 SPS in 223
New H-S Precision LTR Style short action stock
Have a 1:8 twist 300/221 heavy barrel made to 20-inches
Have the barrel threaded for the 5/8x24 thread typical of AR-10s and other 30-cals
Have everything built up and blueprinted and refinish with some type of Matte or parkerized finish

I am hoping that Kurt at Kurt's Kustom can do it for me as he as built a few toys for me ove the years but we will see:

I just need to get some idea what I will have invested in this...
