[QUOTE="ndking1126, post: 1916508, member: 26820"] If buying an off the shelf rifle, I'd probably by a Seekins Havak and a Leupold VX5. Or the Nightforce because I've always wanted to see what the fuss is all about. But that's not my style, I like to do things on the cheap even when I don't necessarily need to. I'd follow what's worked for me.. used Savage 10/110 action, Shilen match barrel, and B&C stock (usually about $1,200 total). I really like my VX3i for hunting and PST Gen 2 for long range. Id save the rest for ammo and eventually convince myself to buy a chassis system to try. My friend told me, "You're an enigma. You chase the smallest groups you can get, yet always talk about how you buy used and on sale. Why don't you just buy something nice?" I said "because seeing how cheaply I can do something is half the fun and because I love outshooting people when they get big headed over their high dollar equipment." I'm not saying Im always successful, but its fun when I do. Lol, to each their own I guess :) [/QUOTE]
