Ok, I've tried cutting the end with a sawzall, the ends come out
uneven. I tried with a circular, I can't ever seem to get the cuts to
line up when I flip the wood to do the other side. And the miter saw I
have just isn't big enough.

I've resorted to having Home Depot cut them there, but they don't do
precision cuts, and sometimes they are too busy and I don't want to
wait.

Add in the fact that sooner or later I'm going to have rough sawn 4x4
that I will have to cut myself regardless.

Besides buying a really big miter/radial arm saw, any suggestions?

Take your 4x4, put it on a workbench or sawhorses. Measure off and clamp 2
straightedges to each side at the exact same spots (i.e. parallel to each
other). Use each clamped straightedge to run the circular saw against.
Should get you a pretty close cut both sides.
