[QUOTE="shooter7, post: 1169246, member: 39303"] You have an action and scope that will work already. Anyone who says 14 power isn't enough for 1k lacksdecent eye sight. I've shot 1k with a 10 power vx 3. My advice, buy a bell and carlson medalist in the style of your choice. I like the "m40" then get yourself a barrel from lilja, krieger, bartlein, etc. With your budget I'd say do a trigger upgrade to a timney 510. All together Barrel $375 Trigger $125 Barrel install $250 with action trueing Stock $250 Precision recoil lug $30 Muzzle brake $200 installed You wanna hunt with it, I suggest fluting $120 You're looking at $1350 right there and you're set for 1k shooting. This is very similar to my build last year. I paid a little more for detachable mag system and cerakote. My guess if you got it fluted with a 26 inch barrel ( rem varmint contour) the entire package with scope would weigh in around 12lbs Note that prices are approximate. You can save money here and there by watching for sales and the classifieds. [/QUOTE]
