Help me build a rifle

Appreciate all the replies. I don’t reload (yet) so am stuck with factory ammo for now. But have always had good luck with ELD-X so would likely lean that way unless something proprietary like 7 backcountry
The 7bc just isn’t the move… as a factory ammo shooter your best options are the 22, 6 or 25 creedmoor for what you’re looking to do
 
Do some research on the 25 creedmoor. Theres a reason why it’s becoming extremely popular on the NRL and PRS scene. I built one last year and hunted with it.. the 133 Berger EOL is flat nasty. Killed an antelope, two deer and an elk with it last year from 220 to 762 yards.
Im in the process of building a 25 creed now. What is your barrel length and what velocity are you getting with yours?
 
I don’t understand what is required to get a tikka action and a 25 creed barrel to work together? Does the action need to be worked over by a gunsmith?
 
I’d like to build a long range tack driver that isn’t super duper heavy. Maybe like a 22 creed or 22 ARC? 7 backcountry with a short barrel intrigues me as well. Would like a chassis type stock that folds with a built in ARCA for tripod connection and maybe a small pic rail out front for a spartan mount for bipod. Thinking carbon barrel and will run suppressed. I hear people talk about buying Tikkas and putting on different barrels and stocks. Is that something I could do myself? I am fairly handy but not a gunsmith. I currently have a 6.5 prc browning xbolt speed and a Christensen ridgeline fft in 300 PRC.
Call TS Customs. They built me a tack driving 6mm Creedmoor. 22” really light everything I wanted. Walking hiking Hunting rifle. I’ve just started load development and this is what Im getting

Nice shooting. I love my 6 creedmoor shooting 108 elite bergers. What bullets are you shooting?
