[QUOTE="5.56×250, post: 1676989, member: 110162"] Scrounge around the pawn shops in your area and find a rem 700 adl synthetic. Cheapest 700 ever made. Probably get one for 300 bucks. Scrape everything but the action. I wouldn't even worry about trueing it. Pick your favorite barrel brand and get a remage cut barrel and nut. Timney 510 trigger. Stockys carbon sporter stock. Rem action 300.00 Remage barrel and nut approx 450.00 Timney 140.00 Stockys carbon fiber stock 450.00 1340.00 fish Get good glass in classifieds for several hundo less than new price, say a grand ? 2340.00 Good rings and base, let's round that to 160 bucks to make an even 2400.00 for a scoped light weight, tack driver. I did basically the same thing, but cheaped out on the barrel and nut for 340.00, and a 170.00 Boyd's laminated feather weight stock. Paid 560.00 for an athlon midas tac 6-24×50. Very nice glass for half the price of a better known brand. In 6.5 creedmoor, its threatening to be a 1/4 moa fly wing remover. Shoots 1,/2 moa with factory fodder. [/QUOTE]
