Score High Gunsmithing has operated from the same Albuquerque location since 1985. Their philosophy is straightforward: accuracy is absolutely everything. Whether you need a complete custom build or specific accurizing services on your existing bolt-action rifle, they handle the full scope of work in-house.
"The proof is in rifles that shoot. It's no accident—it comes from hard work, experience, and a desire to achieve unparalleled perfection." - Score High Gunsmithing
Custom rifles built to perform in extreme conditions—from scorching desert heat (105°F) to bone-cold winters (-40°F), whether that's a dry desert or tropical rainforest. They work with you on configuration. If you've been collecting components over time, they'll convert those into your finished rifle. If you need them to source everything, they'll do that too.

Precision Scope Mounting
Score High uses a custom-built carriage system (similar to a rail gun) that holds the barreled action and scope perfectly plumb. The scope centerline and bore centerline must align in the same vertical plane to within .001" over six inches. This level of precision matters—their testing showed that minimal scope rotation at the rings can shift point of impact by ¾ MIL at 755 yards.
