[QUOTE="TheW900Man, post: 249858, member: 14121"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Tahoma]Hello, Looking for help in picking out a good first rifle to set up for long range. Mostly would be used for deer and coyotes but i would like to keep the option open if i ever did get a chance to go hunt elk or a black bear i could use the same rifle with only having to up the bullet weight if needed. I've been told to get a magnum as it holds up better beyond 400 yards. I would like to keep the price less than 1000.00 in the entire setup. Some of the ones I have been looking at are... Tikka Savage with accura-trigger Ruger M77 Hawkeye As far as optics i dont even have a clue where to begin in looking for a long range scope. All I have ever used on my hunting rifles are tasco 3x9x40's. As far as ammo I will be reloading my own so any information on this will be very helpful in regards to good bullets and powder combos. I know there are probably a bunch of things i missed so let me know of anything else that would be helpful to you....Thanks Randy [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
