[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 1315018, member: 17844"] You buy what you can afford at the time and the skill of the shooter makes up for a lot. I see rich guys at my range with all kinds of fancy rifles and scopes and some of them have poor shooting skills . They think just buying the best is all it takes . I sure helps but you still have to know how to shoot well . One guy I remember had a nice blue printed Rem 700 in 300 WM in an Accuracy International stock . Night force scope and can't remember what bi-pod probably AI also . Anyway he was getting hot under the collar because the gun was shooting big groups . His grumbling caused me to stop and watch him . Everything was wrong from flinching to bad trigger jerk the whole ball game of errors. So I asked him for a shot of the gun to see if it was bad . I could see it was zeroed about 1 inch high at 100 meters . So settled in took an aim 1 inch low from the small bulls eye and bang the first shot went dead center as did the next two for a near one hole group . The guy was speechless . I then said mate I would kill to own this gun it's perfect , you just need to stop whining and clean up your shooting style and you will be a great shot . [/QUOTE]
