[QUOTE="XxStarXx, post: 1130494, member: 92726"] Hi guys, Thanks for all the replys this has been some really great info. As suggested I think I'm going to go with the Bell and Carson Alaskan II stock with the full aluminum bedding block and a good bed job to start with then optics is a must I think but where to start with the optics? I would love to have a NF but that's way to much to ask for my wife would never let me spend that much for a rifle scope lol she is from Scotland where they don't own guns and can't understand why I need all this lol her response was " its a gun right?...it shoots bullets right?.... Well then you don't need anything else..." Lol so needless to say the NF isn't going to happen for awhile. I do have a pretty much brand new VX-1 in a 3x9x40mm already but the down fall is that it's coin style adjustments but there is good news I spoke to Leupold and they are able to convert that scope to M1 or CDS turrets for under $150 with a 4 week turnaround but I don't know if that option is worth the time and money to mess with? Or any suggestions in optics for $800 or less? Mostly going to be used for hunting so I don't exactly need perfect glass but do want and need it to have reliable and repeatable target tracking as #1 Also I have been looking into reloading equipment as well but man there is soooooo much diffent stuff out there like single stage, progressive, this brand that brand ect. I'm not sure where to start any ideas? The thought of reloading does scare me at bit as I have never reloaded anything but shotgun shells and that doesn't really count as reloading imo. I do have a friend that does reloading but I'm kinda Leary letting him teach me or reloading for me as he one of those friends that we all have that is a bit questionable at times when doing things lol so that's that with reloading.
