[QUOTE="stringman, post: 2383124, member: 121403"] In my humble opinion if a person is going to use only one rifle bear in mind there is no substitute for quality. $1500 for a rifle with optics may be a bit low, my advice would be in a factory rifle a browning X bolt preferably in the pro model or Tikka better yet would be a Sako. If you wish to shoot to 1500 yards quality optics would be important. Regarding caliber 7 mm Remington magnum however if you hand load my choice would be the 280 Ackley improved. I realize that what I’m recommending is going to exceed the $1500 requirement however I have found in my 50 years that it cost more in the long run to buy a product you’re not really happy with only to spend more money in the future to get what you really want.
