[QUOTE="Engineering101, post: 938951, member: 63138"] mrbofus I'd like to throw another thought at you that may effect what you decide to do. You mentioned your personal 400 yard limit as the farthest you would shoot. I'm guessing you have never had a properly equipped long range rifle and shot with it to even 600 yards. Once you have experienced that you are going to move your limit out - a lot. If you recognize this before you do what you are going to do you may choose differently. So whatever you do (and buying a new Rem 700 LR is not a bad idea) keep that in mind. Also, factor a good muzzle brake into your plans ($200 installed). Depending on the cartridge you are shooting you can often spot your own shots with a brake not to mention it is a whole lot more fun working up a load. [/QUOTE]
