[QUOTE="MikeMurf0505, post: 389222, member: 14538"] My friend made a suggestion to me prior to me buying my current rifle. I wished I had listened to him. His suggestion was simple: Find a Remington Model 700 action that is in good shape. Rebarrel it with a custom match grade barrel from a top house, precision stock too. Put a good optic on it, like a Zeiss or nightforce, etc... Then you have a perfect rifle, and your done. All professionally assembled, and ready to start load developement. I bought a factory rifle. It had a bad barrel and had to go back. I got the new barreled action. I had to fire lap it and went through two scopes till I realized I did not have the optic I needed to get to where I wanted to go. Start off right, and you will finish right, with a mimimum of crappy rides home from the range (man thats a long drive). Just my suggestion. [/QUOTE]
