[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 472792, member: 5219"] You never mentioned the weight of the rifle. If money is a limiting factor you could buy a Remington model 700 SPS for around $575 or perhaps a bit less if you shop around. This model has a 26" barrel and no iron sights. Then go to Stocky's and find a laminate stock that appeals to you if you want to add some weight. If you want to get it as light as possible and still stay on your budget, get one of the Alaskan Ti models. Price is $209 to $235 depending on which model. [url=http://www.stockysstocks.com/servlet/the-190/700-alaskan-ti-wildermess/Detail]Bell & Carlson Alaskan Wilderness / Mountain Rifle Remington Model 700 Stock - Right & Left Hand Available - NEW Model![/url] I put a 243 SPS into a non bedding block Ti with no bedding and it shot with great precision. Your rifle will weigh more but that 243 is just over 7 lbs with a 4-12 x 40 Leupold. details on Ti stock from stocky's website: If you have a standard sporter or mag and want the lightest drop-in get the 2265/7 Alaskan TI. If you have a standard sporter or magnum, want a full length block and don't mind like a couple more ounces the 2461/2/3/4 Alaskan II is the one. You should have some money left over to buy an after market trigger. I put a rifle basics in that previously mentioned 243 and it works great. Add all the items up and you are still under $1000 [/QUOTE]
