[QUOTE="DoubleGobble00, post: 171634, member: 9383"] Oops... I will be hunting deer with it and target shooting. I don't plan to hunt elk or any real big game just whitetails. Yes the $1k is total with optics. I read about the SS 10x or 20x for $300 or the Bushnell 3200 10x for $175 sounds fine to me. I have been looking at the Savage FVSS 308 and 300wsm.... Since I don't reload (yet) the 308 might be best since there is a wide variety of ammo and it is cheaper so I can shoot more... I really haven't research them enough just yet so I am looking for some more ideas. I think I can shoot 1 inch groups at 100 yards with the 280 if I get a trigger job. I think the trigger is about 7-8 lbs right now (factory trigger). My groups were much larger than this last weekend. My best group last weekend was a 4 inch group at 250 yards which aint that great but okay I guess. DoubleG [/QUOTE]
