[QUOTE="Almondgrower, post: 1529929, member: 106582"] There is a new craze on the Horizon, it’s the ( factory rifles shoot well craze ) Use your rifle!! ( as long as barrel is not shot out of course ) Start with a G7 range finder and preferably moa turrets on your scope that way the range finder can compensate for atmospheric conditions and shot angle and then you just dial the moa on the scope turret. DO NOT get caught up in this custom rifle craze ..... most costom builders can charge as much as they want and they will still be 6 months out ! It is not nesacary to buy a 3-10,000$ gun to shoot .5 moa groups , it’s insane ! The thing costom gun builders don’t want you to know is......MOST factory rifles WILL shoot 1/2” groups with FACTORY Ammo !! The work is on the gun owner to find THE Ammo that shoots in THAT rifle !! ( not factory Ammo that shoots in a buddies rifle or a rifle like yours ..... find one that shoots in YOUR rifle ) Start with Nosler Ammo with L.R.acubond Bullets or barns TTSX and start testing . Find a load that YOUR gun likes and use that until you are able to load the sometimes several houndred rounds needed to find a handload of your own to keep cost down ! I have been sticking to this process for over 25 years and I am happy to see that FFL’s are starting to catch on and sell these rifles all set up very reasonable ! If you don’t want to do the work to set all that up then you can buy a rifle where all the validation is done for you but it DOES NOT need to be a high dollar custom gun , you CAN buy a gun with all this done for you starting at 2000$ , gun, scope & mounting , turrets , and verification [/QUOTE]
