[QUOTE="rogue savage, post: 966847, member: 40993"] I'd buy a rem 700 bdl, new or from a pawn shop. Buy a B&C Alaskan II stock, jewell trigger and the scope of your choice. Then spend some time working up a load and you should be good to go! I just bought a stainless bdl 7mag sporter with leupold rings (almost new) from a pawn shop for $450. Bought a slightly used Nikon buckmasters 4.5-14x40 for $150. Tore it apart and cleaned it up, although it was not really needed. Spent 30 min throwing 4 different loads together with 168gr bergers and headed off to the range. Factory stock and heavy factory trigger gave me .40in group at 2955fps! I had planned on taking it to my smith and having the action blueprinted but..... if I get any improvement with the b&c alaskan II stock, bedding and jewell trigger I have on order I'll just call it good to go.
