[QUOTE="tankgijohn72, post: 1272078, member: 77441"] Definitely agree with author that accurate rifles set up the way you want are the way to go. One thing I would throw out there is to build a custom rifle yourself. I have built two, one on a savage and one on a Remington using a remage barrel. Both do require action wrench, barrel vise, and headspace gages but still much cheaper then using a gunsmith. Both rifles are well under MOA with 10 shot groups. Plus you have a rifle that you built with hand-loads you built. Used the 300 WM to connect with Mulies in Idaho last year and the 35 whelen for my biggest deer ever in CO this year. Mine may not be quite as pretty as some of the custom rifles, but I think they look pretty good and will hold their own in the accuracy dept as well. $1200 for one build and $700 for the whelen.
