[QUOTE="Brewer, post: 1030674, member: 71923"] Mudrunner, its always good to hear you chime in!! I have to agree with the 700 action in a rifle of your choice and budget and a Burris or Monarch for $400 and spend the money on good rings and rail you want when you are done. Add the jewel when you have the $200. then spend the next $1000 shooting the barrel out of it while saving for a really good scope (the one you want to end up with. once you get the scope, swap them out and put the old one on another rifle or sell it. then all you have left is the barrel. have your action trued and but a good barrel on it. you know, I, and many others, have kicked ourselves but cheaping out a coupe of hundred bucks because we didn't want to save for another 6 months. by that time you will be a competent shooter and you will probably know what cartridge you want to chamber your new one in (if different). of course, that's probably 5-10 years down the road, and it gives you time to save money and shot all at the same time.
