[QUOTE="JustMe2, post: 1686632, member: 42494"] Scandinavian you seem to be all over the place with your questions. First you talk about setting up your stock, then later you talk about bullet penetration, then whether the money is worth the effort for a hunting rifle. You sound very inexperienced. Is it worth the effort? What distance do you plan to shoot which determines what accuracy is required? Put some paper plates out in your hunting area every 100 yds. If you can't keep 3 out of 3 shots on the plate using your hunting positions, you've got 2 choices 1) limit your shooting distance to the plate all 3 shots are on the plate, 2) increase the accuracy of your rifle and your shooting techniques and do the plate test again. Is it worth it? How much are you willing to pay to increase accuracy? If you're asking yourself that question, probably not worth the cost to you. See 1) above. What bullet penetration do you need? What animals are you hunting, rabbits, deer, red stag, ??? Do some reading via google about bullet energy, bullet design and what is required for various game. [/QUOTE]
