[QUOTE="winmag, post: 721711, member: 22166"] Weatherby Vanguard & Howa 1500 are the same action, but the Wby Vanguard is half the price. Stocks swap out etc. The Vanguard S2 is a great rifle, with a good adjustable trigger for the $, & it'll getcha started just fine. Also shop Craigslist or LRH Classifides for used Leupold glass. You can send most models in to Leupold Custom Shop for new or customized reticle, & or turrets WAY CHEAPER than buying a new scope. Warranty is still forever, just like it always is, no matter who purchased it new or used. That aught to get you slinging lead, & have some left over for the start of your reloading equipment. Mine are 7, 5, & 2 in December. I know full we'll $$ is always tight, & doesn't grow on trees. Especially around Christmas, & with mamma being ready to pop. Wait till tax time to buy if it helps keep the peace with mamma. Sometimes works for me anyway:D [/QUOTE]
