[QUOTE="azsugarbear, post: 340519, member: 4809"] Welcome freebird63 to LRH. As you will find out...there is a lot of experience here that can help you make good decisions and learn a lot. The problem will be sifting through the facts and wise counsel from the "uninformed" opinions of a few. Go slow and weigh everything and you should have a great experience here. Now my opinion: There are a lot of good custom rifles out there. Sometimes buying a package rifle with a big name behind it can cost you more. Read up on the experience others have had with Christensen Arms here and on other sites and then form your own opinions accordingly. If you are just getting into LRH, then $2,999 can be a lot to spend on a rifle. For me, buying a lightly used rig makes more sense. It will give you experience with that caliber and the opportunity to do more shooting with the money you saved. It will also help you get an idea of what you like and what you would like to have changed. Another inexpensive route is to start with a Sendero in a caliber you want and then upgrade components when you can afford them. In other words... start in the shallow end of the pool and work deeper once you have a feel for what you really want to accomplish with your rifle and newly developed skills. Once again, welcome to LRH. [/QUOTE]
