[QUOTE="mrbofus, post: 938097, member: 47819"] Let me expand a bit more, I am primary an Archery hunter where closer is better, I dont shoot over 50 yrds with my bow and have harvested many deer and Elk. I also Rifle hunt and have harvested many deer and a few elk all under 300yrds. The 400 yr mark is a personal limit right now based on my comfort level of shooting. The rifle in question has been a good old reliable shooter but neglected as of late. I have never liked the barrel shorter with the front sight on it, and as I said the stock could use some attention. The trigger is acceptable and seems better than my other Rems. Because i have a REM 700 Action, I thought now would be a good time to expand on it. I do not want nor at this time need a hi dollar custom build, but I would like to get new live in the old girl therefore I was thinking building off that platform. The $800 mark is what I would be comfortable in spending at this time and I am sure as 101 stated, with new barrel, true the action and bedding I would be more than pleased. Barrel $$ ? Stock $$? Trigger recomendations? Thanks [/QUOTE]
