[QUOTE="Cecil Higgins, post: 1676833, member: 110010"] Depends on your budget and distance you want to shoot. I have 2 rifles configured for long distance shooting but my latest build, my 3rd, is a Ruger American Rifle in 308. It has incredible accuracy out of the box. It was an easy build with it. I replaced the a few parts but the accuracy at 800 yards is sub minute of angle with the stock barrel. I will say that it isn’t a heavy barrel but with patients and letting it cool between rounds I found it to be as good as my more expensive rifles. It will get you into the “game” of long distance markman ship and let you know if you want to stick with it without breaking the budget. The rifle with hold a good resale value at a price , that if you want to sale it, it will be easier to move then a more expensive rifle. It is available in 308, 223, 6.5 creed more and other calibers so you should find a caliber you want to try in this rifle. Hope this helps [/QUOTE]
