Premade cables are quite expensive compared to homebrew so you have carefully evaluate your skill level and the value of your time.  For example a 6' RG400 premade PL-259 jumper is over $60. If you shop for surplus RG400 and purchase quality Amphenol connectors you could probably build this same jumper for $25.

Yes. That was my solution, using RG400 with Amphenol 83-1SPs and silver reducers, it comes out closer to $15, assuming that you buy connectors in quantity and share with friends and RG400 on ebay.
