Great caliber. Probably wouldn't hurt to read this article: http://www.accurateshooter.com/guns-of-week/gunweek072/
I built a 6.5x47 and followed his recommendations. Mine shoots just as good or better than his with the exact loads/bullets he is using. I have a few friends with the same rifle who can state the same. JMO

PS: Feel free to ask or PM questions
PSS: JMO again, but if you start ordering parts in November, I don't know or wouldn't bet on your Christmas deadline. Not unless you have secrets I don't know about!
But everyone here will be glad to help you with your build. Wouldn't hurt to become a member and you will have a wealth of info available to you.
