[QUOTE="ohiohunter, post: 1171779, member: 55230"] Are you going to shoot 1k or just mid range? The savage is fine for what you want, but I would search the classifieds on some competition sites. You'll be surprised what you can get for the price of that savage. If you have a local range holding matches I say jump in balls deep. You don't need tiptop of the line to be competitive. First things first I'd go to a match, not to shoot, but to check it out and talk to a few guys then decide if you want to pursue it. There is no sense in dropping $1500 on a gun just to want a $3500 gun 3 matches later. I've always been a hunter first so it was hard to justify buying a bench gun until I talked to one of the top guys at the range. He said "how many times do you shoot a hunting rifle?... We just shot 55x". Then I realized that the range gun was going to get shot a lot and therefore worth the investment. [/QUOTE]
