[QUOTE="trebark, post: 541594, member: 19172"] You can build a pretty nice rifle for ~$1500. As an FYI, my nephew's rifle cost ~$975. You could go custom barrel and better optics and stay within your $1500 budget. If you intend to compete with the rifle, you will be learning a lot about barrel life. Competition rifles tend to be shot a lot and as a result, get hot, stay hot and the barrel gets eaten up. There are definitely calibers that are more barrel friendly than others. For instance, a 260 will generally last longer than a 6.5x284 [/QUOTE]
