Notice..................... There are times it doesn't work
I at least have the LRP's , about 6000 of them & I have 3lbs of H4198, I reload centerfire, it's convincing the wife that I have the problem with. She will say another one !!
I know exactly what you mean. I just talked the "little woman" into letting me buy one of the new Garmin radars, along with 400 XLD's.

I've been thinking about my approach (thinking is a good first thing) to .... suggesting ... that I need a new custom 40cal. Its something a guy just doesn't jump right in to. Ya have to think about it and plan it accordingly.

No need to go with a 10k full-custom rifle as your fist sml. I’d put a sml barrel on an Encore or Omega or have a Scout converted. One of these builds will do 95% of what most of us need/want it to do.
Thank you very much for all the info. & most of all your help & knowledge. Because, before I joined MML, I didn't have a clue about any of this. Thanks again Encore!An Encore Barrel will run $1,500 or there about. I HIGHLY SUGGEST IT BE THREADED FOR A MUZZLE BRAKE OR BETTER YET, COME WITH ONE.
You end up with a 300yd rifle and a production rifle can match that.
You can buy a 45cal Brux barrel #17 Heavy Varmint: 1.250×5:”, ST 0.9@30″ (finish up to 30″, fluted from 8.5-26.5) for $540 and a Defiance action for $990.
The Brux listed will shoot very heavy charges of smokeless or BH209, much heavier than an Encore or Omega. You also have a 1,000yd rifle.
A Stockeys next generation carbon fiber stock will run right around $550.
$540 + $990 + $550 = $2,080................... $2080 - $1,500 = $580
So for approximately $580 more than an Encore barrel alone, you get a top-of-the-line action, barrel and stock. Additional costs would be for one of the builders to put it together and your choice of trigger. I don't believe anyone of them is going to charge you $8,000.
Going full custom doesn't have to be anywhere near $10K.
Again............. If you don't have the money or time to do it right the first time, where will you get the money to do it over?
Absolutely! That's where I got the prices. https://arrowheadrifles.com/

Your welcome sir!
Dam! Doing all of that work you'll be too tired to shoot!Where's all the shooters ?????
We've had a ton of rain in the past week, so getting on the club's range would be a muddy mess trying to hang targets, so it was time to get things done here at home so when the range does dry, I can shoot.
I've rolled the lawn twice. Spread 200# of 19-19-19, along with 150# of 46-0-0. Before this last rain, I spread 80# of Spectracide Triazicide for ticks in the yard.
The spring yard work is complete.
All the trees that had broken limbs from the heavy snow have been trimmed, including a couple apple trees. I did get all the trails throughout the woods too. Hooked the disc up to the Ranger and tilled up the large food plot. Pulled the gong out of the other garage and put that out at 100yds. It's no challenge with the muzz, but I do a lot of pistol shooting with it.
When I put the gong out, I picked up all the rocks that had either fell from the berm or were knocked down by the deer climbing it. Need to keep those mower blades sharp
Still have both garages to clean up from winter's mess, along with taking down an old ShelterLogic shed and putting up a new one. We use it to store wood, garden hoses and a few other odds and ends.
Getting the work out of the way to be able to shoot...........
LOL............. Nothing that an hours nap won't fixDam! Doing all of that work you'll be too tired to shoot!
Yeah, I quest you got that right.LOL............. Nothing that an hours nap won't fix
