Any suggestions for a quality Long Range Rifle builder?

No experience with them. What are you wanting to do with the rifle?

Long Range Shooting

I am not a hunter, so this rifle will be for casual range shooting, but I want to be able to hit a target at 1,000 yards again.

I think I have decided on one of these three cartridges:
6mm Norma Bench Rest
6mm Dasher (though I have to fire form cases from 6mm BR)
6.5X284

Was thinking about a Model 12 Savage Bench Rest in 6.5x284, though have been told that the round is a barrel eater and also that the trigger on the Savage is not that great and there is no really good replacement.

So I am now considering either a rifle built by Precision Tooling or Hammonds. 30 Inch Barrel, Bench Rest Laminated Stock etc.

Bob
