Default Building a Gun?? How Hard?

I at the moment am only 25 years old. I do hope to one day start a family and settle down and have been thinking about maybe looking into a rifle to be passed down to my son or son in law some day...I was starting to think about getting a high end Sako or Kimber, but then i thought about what about putting together my own gun...

I was thinking about buying an action, stock, and barrel and putting together my own rifle. While i know each of the parts carry some $$ it still would be a unique piece. I was thinking I could put it together and then have it blueprinted by a gunsmith....I was thinking about getting a stock and having it engraved as well....

Now here are the questions....
Is this something you think I can do with little experience or with the help of a gunsmith?
What Caliber? My fav is my .270 still so i was thinking that would be the way to go.
What type of stock?
Blued or Stainless Barrel?
