Update!
And thanks to all that have helped
I'm still a Dummy, just a little smarter Dummy
I have everything in hand and headed to the Smith tommorrow
As mentioned before I have the Boyds Lam. stock and will have him check the bedding.
I bought a new Ziess Conquest 4.5X14-50 scope with turrets
and Burris bases and Signature series rings.
I liked the idea of being able to buy offset inserts for the rings if the windage is off.
I may not have made all the right choices but bought everything right and still should be under a $1000.00 with the Smith fees and finishing the stock after the smith is done with it.
Don't think you guys are off the hook though.
Now we are going to get into loading and now I have started to get my Contender into the longer range picture.
Think maybe the Girls .08 might need some upgrading also
I knew you Guys were going to cost me a ton of money
Thanks again
Mike
