[QUOTE="liltank, post: 310826, member: 13275"] Your on the right track. It is better to spend a lot of money on optics and as little as possible on the rifle. The optics will make you more of a marksman than the rifle. However, choosing the right rifle will help in the accuracy. Right now my scope is in the shop. I know that I could have shot a tighter group had I had my long range scope on the rifle. With a 3x9 Tasco as a supplement until my good one came back, made me appreciate the quality of optics. Chances are if the rifle does not shoot well, it can be fixed with hand loads or basic smithing. What I mean by basic smithing is: Bedding the rifle, free floating the barrel, and getting a trigger job. I don't think you will go wrong. Out of cruiosity... what are you looking at for glass? Tank [/QUOTE]
