[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 734160, member: 29890"] I'm putting in another vote for the Savage model 12 F class, 6.5x284norma, yeah the 308 is fun and can be shot a lot but isn't a top notch choice for a 1000yrds. The f class will cost about 1150 then you can put a 8-32x56 Sightron SIII on it with good rings and a 20moa base for another 950. I had one that would shoot Cor-bon 139grn Lapua scenars or reloads with 139 scenars or 142 sierras into .2-.4moa at 100, and shot a few single digit groups with the rifle at 1k with 139 scenar reloads. I will say it carbon fouled about every 15-18 rounds but that wasn't a big issue, just clean it and continue shooting. [/QUOTE]
