Hello. My names GradeA and I'm lookin into my first long range rifle build. I currently own a Winchester model 70 (post '64) 22-250 and she sure is a straight shooter, just interested in a little more. Been lookin into the savage 10 actions. Any suggestions or tips are greatly appreciated. Also places where I can make purchases of parts. Is there anything I will need besides stock, barrel, and action/trigger assembly?

You'll also need a barrel nut wrench, possibly an action wrench, and the proper headspace gauges for the chambering you choose.

Welcome! Read through the build threads on this forum and you can get more ideas than you can build in a lifetime. Have a look through the sponsors section to find your parts. If it can be bolted, screwed or glued to a Savage rifle, one of those guys will have it. I have personal experience with NSS, Apache, Criterion Barrels and EGW. I don't hesitate to recommend any and all of them. Enjoy your research, it's ALMOST as fun as the actual build.
