[QUOTE="MtPockets, post: 784176, member: 39651"] If you are right eye dominant, you will definately want to shoot right handed. Lots of good advice on this thread so far, especially the one that told you to slow down with this "build". See if you can find a good deal on a used .308, mount your scope and get out shooting. By buying a used rifle you may save enough to sneak in a reloading press and some components and still stay in budget. You said that you don't have a lot of shooting experience- get a used .22 as well. In fact, I think I'd get the .22 before the reloading setup. I know that at the moment you cannot buy .22 shells but that WILL change and when it does you will shoot it for a very small fraction of what it'll take to shoot that .308 (or any other centerfire). The most critical part of becoming a good shot is to shoot a LOT, whether it's a .22 or a .308 doesn't matter- you need a lot of trigger time to become a good shot! Good luck!!! Ron [/QUOTE]
