Hello all,
I'm a young 20 year old person, just starting my LR shooting endeavors. I've been looking at alot of the factory offerings, but I just can't fine one I truly am drawn to. This is for my hunting rifle, a 300WM is in-line for elk, bear and deer. I'm curious about doing a "semi-custom" if you will, for under $900-1000.
I like the Tikka, but not a huge fan of the 11 twist and 24" barrel. The Remington's (5R, Sendero, etc.) are also extremely nice, however, I just can't bring myself to carry something so heavy (sold my 5R b/c of it's weight and my style of hunting).
I'd like to see if the following is a possibility. If so, recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Goal: Accuracy to 600 yards on game, 1000 on steel.
- 26" Barrel ; 10 or 9 twist
- 9 to 9.5 lbs with scope
- COAL not limited by magazine
Thank you all!
