[QUOTE="cfvickers, post: 406727, member: 25488"] I am feelin you on feeling like a pauper on a kings mountain. All of my rifles are stock. The furthest thing I have from stock is a husqvarna crow grade that is really a fairly inexpensive rifle with a really good action and barrel. It is bedded and rechambered to 6.5-284. My other 6.5-284 is the Savage 111LRH I just got. aside from that they are all, including the savage, bone stock. I have put a brake on my .300 mag but I won it in a raffle a long time ago so that is all it cost me. My rifles all shoot very well but none are just real special. In stock rifles for a guy on a budget I would suggest a Marlin XL7 in 25-06, that thing is a shooter right out of the box. It isn't mine but I have it to play with any time I want. My father has some customs, so I have experience with custom rifles but haven't been able to afford one myself. Nothing wrong with most mass manufactured rifles now days. besides you can always get a rifle and have it rebarreled or restocked or both down the road. Until you can afford it "run what you brung!" not everyone can afford the biggest baddest or best, I don't think anyone here or elsewhere will look down on you for that. I got the Savage LRH because it has all of the features I would want on a custom in a stock, somewhat affordable platform, and being a savage you can easily replace barrels and stocks with custom fairly inexpensive down the road. Don't feel bad though, there are others here with you. [/QUOTE]
