[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1349834, member: 101755"] A couple things the OP said... "In my country" and "Moreover I would like to improve the pieces of my rifle in the future." Not sure how available replacement parts are where he lives...nor do we have any idea his skill set for him to "improve" parts of his rifle. Pawn shops are a great place to start. Me...I would be looking for a short action Savage 308. Get in cheap and you have tons of options in the future. New barrels, triggers, bolts, bolt sleeve and stocks...all DIYS. I can see myself now...new choate stock, new bolt sleeve and tactical bolt handle...new 6.5 Creedmoor barrel...catch the right deal at the pawn shop...you could have a hell of a nice semi custom rifle that should .5 moa all day long. He never mentions reloading so both caliber options have plenty of good factory match ammo. I need to stop by the pawn shops this weekend...just got an idea! ;) [/QUOTE]
