[QUOTE="huntin1, post: 55582, member: 1719"] You may be able to find a used rig in your price range, watch the for sale topic on this and places like snipershide.com and gunbroker.com, as always buyer beware. If you want new I would recommend a Savage 10FP .308 with the accutrigger, you can sometimes find these new for around $500 sometimes less. Once you get the rifle then you will know what you can spend on a scope and rings. Get the best you can afford. Farrell is a good base and can be had for about $45 at sharp shooters supply. Rings, Burris Sig. Zee rings are good, I like the Tactical Precision TSR-W rings but they cost a little more than the Burris. A Leupold 3x9x40 Tactical would be a good scope for around $350-$400. I would also check into Sightron, they have a 3x12x42AO Mildot, or 4x16x42AO Mildot these will range from $300 to $450, you just have to shop around to get the best price. Check midwayusa.com too. Don't be afraid to ask, there are many guys on this and other forums with a lot more knowledge than me, and it has been my experience that they will help you whenever they can.
