[QUOTE="Mjrsfj40, post: 1045039, member: 88063"] I have the Rock River Varmint with the 18" heavy barrel with a 1/8 twist. On the plus side: great trigger, sub-moa accuracy with bulk 55 grain PMC ammo and 1/2 moa with handloade 60 grain Hornady VMAX bullets, 50 grain Nosler Ballistic Tips or 55 grain Nosler Ballistic Tips. Negative: heavy gun and due to the magazine length COL is limited unless using a single shot adapter. I have not shot 40 or 45 grain bullets, as the bullets noted have worked great! When I have time, there are several other bullets I want to shoot; however, the current supply shoots tight and blows up critters just fine. For an optic, a Nikon 4-16x SF Monarch sits on top. Great scope for my purposes and was used one deer season on my 300 Win Mag with great results! All of the rifles mentioned will meet your needs. Personally, I would focus on a quality optic to top the rifle. Without clarity or magnification, it does not matter how much is spent on the weapon, if you cannot see the target the gun won't shoot!
