[QUOTE="adam.WI, post: 479599, member: 31679"] Just wanted to start out by saying Hello and tell you a little about myself. I'm from WI and grew up hunting just about everything. I joined the military and served my first 5 years at 2/75 in Ft lewis and am now stationed down in Central UT where I have found out that long range hunting and shooting is a way of life. I've spent a great deal of time behind a rifle so I'm not a complete newbie but as far as building a rifle from the ground up I may have some short comings. So the questions will be asked with a statement of what I want. I would like a rifle to hunt elk sized game and smaller, the cheaper the ammo the better (I don't reload yet) Hunting ranges is a problem due to right now I wouldn't be comfortable with that far of a shot 300-400 yards, but would like the potential to grow in to something further. I shoot vortex optics and have a viper that will be on top of this rifle. Where would you guys start with out breaking the bank $700 for rifle alone. With upgrades to follow. Thanks for any advice Adam [/QUOTE]
