[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1197965, member: 12995"] You do realize the Remington 700 Long Range IS a $600 rifle, right? And it has the 26" heavy barrel (more prone to accuracy due to less barrel whip, than the sporter barrels, like on the Tikka) and the OP likes a heavier rifle for steadier shots, it is available in a variety of cartridges, and the B&C M40 Medalist stock, is much better than the factory Tikka stocks. Also, has a 9.25" twist, that can handle the 168 VLD's and possibly the Berger 180 Hybrids. And he still has the same $1,500 he can drop on a good scope, rings, and base setup...
