[QUOTE="BOBinWA, post: 1161156, member: 94168"] Jack, Since you're considering going that directions I'll give you an idea I had that will probably only muddy the waters. I am just getting into long range shooting too and one of the ideas I have to to buy a Remington Model 700 Long Range - $740 at some of the big name sporting goods stores. If I get a good one that will get me out to 700 yards or more, good for me. I got a great starter rifle. If not, I have the 700 action and bottom metal and a B&C stock for $740. Throw in the other numbers IdahoCTD mentioned to upgrade the trigger, truing the action and re-barreling, bedding, rings and scope and your in the same ballpark price wise with a [B][I]real[/I][/B] shooter. If you could find someone who wants the old parts -- trigger, barrel, stock if you prefer HS, you might make a little money back. Might be the way to go. I'd be interested in anyone's thoughts?
