jj,
it would be helpful to know which model and caliber the rifle is in. It's claimed the Custom Shop uses different barrels, and often different calibers are available. Of the two Remington CS guns I've shot, they where very nice and accurate. Unless it's in a configuration that you just have to have, and is not available in the regular catalog, I'd be dubious of spending the extra money for it. Remington triggers can be adjusted to levels that are very acceptable for field work.
One other thing to consider, the CS rifle will hold it's value much, much, much better than a rack rifle that so'n so worked on and put a new trigger on and did this'n that to. If you ever tire of the rifle, or just plain decide you don't like it, you'll get much more of your money back than on a tinkered with, warranty voided, rack rifle.
