[QUOTE="lgraham, post: 531773, member: 24438"] I want to buy a new rifle for long range varmint hunting, coyotes/rockchucks out to 500/600 yards. I am looking at getting either the Remington SPS Varmint Stainless or the regular plain Tikka T3 Stainless and was wondering if anyone had advise about which of the two ( or other guns) to get. If I go the Remington route I plan to glass bed the stock and do a trigger job. Also, I have decided on a .243 and plan to reload for the gun, but am open to other suggestions if there is a better caliber suited to this application. I would like to stay away from getting something too spendy or going the custom route. So would a reasonable priced factory gun in .243 (like those listed above) achieve the accuracy that is needed for hunting at this range? Also, I'm left handed if that makes a difference. Thanks for any input, Luke [/QUOTE]
