[QUOTE="kshunter, post: 1145506, member: 19377"] First off welcome to the forum. This is a great place to hang out and there are lots of guys on here that are very wise! Barrel nut has given some great advise. I started off with a savage 110 in 30-06. No accutrigger, Tupperware stock and sporter barrel. I started reloading and working on my basic shooting skills and was amazed at what a difference it made in what I could accomplish. I feel a descent scope that has a holdover reticle or finger adjustable turrets in the power range and size barrel nut suggested along with a simple reloading kit will help you extend your effective range a great deal. I think you probably have a pretty capable rifle as it is. I wouldn't change it yet until you start reloading and get an optic that can take advantage of its current capabilities. Also if recoil starts to get annoying during long strings of fire. Whitt machine makes bolt on muzzle brake that would probably help for around 100 bucks. [/QUOTE]
