[QUOTE="Bang4theBuck, post: 1610469, member: 73596"] I think that we have all had that dilemma at some point. My approach, lately has been to scratch the itch by building cool stuff, inexpensively, with good quality. Once I make it shoot straight and can document those results, I'll play with it for a while, and then put it on the list of the rifles that I will sell when it is time to fund a 'lifer project'. Based on the comments included with items for sale in the classified section, I don't think that I am the only one with this approach. Fair warning, if you are looking for an ultra-accurate rifle, you might find that a stevens 200 with a $95 trigger upgrade, a used take-off barrel in a cool caliber, a bedded boyds stock, and a good load work-up might out-shoot anything else you have. This could make it hard to sell, and could set you back on your 'lifer project'....but those are the good problems. [/QUOTE]
