[QUOTE="Jon Bischof, post: 2688920, member: 879"] I just looked at the prices for Christensen Arms rifles. "Affordable and reliable..." they say. Seems a lot of people who have more money than they know what to do with can "afford" them. But it pains me to see folks who have families and many other expenses pay much more than they have to get less than they paid for. Why are people paying $1600-$2000+ for a rifle that has so many well known problems (some of which are never resolved) and may not even chamber factory ammo? On top of this, customers are happy if they can get them to shoot even after a whole year of trying different loads. And then they settle for half to 3/4 MOA when they could have had less than half MOA for a thousand dollars less money if they had only bought a different rifle. Paying more for a rifle that doesn't shoot as well and may even have basic operating problems does not seem like a good use of hard earned money to me. Especially if you have a family to support. If I were going to spend near $2000 on anything, I would want to read a few reviews first. I read a whole lot of reviews before I bought my first Sauer. But some still believe that you can somehow skip the practice developing marksmanship and just buy your way to accuracy. You can't. [/QUOTE]
