[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1109583, member: 90399"] Hey lv2hunt; I'm the one who started the thread in the link MudRunner posted above. Check out page 10 for some pics of how I modified my first 783 so far. Also, check out page 13 for the accuracy. $289 isn't a stellar price on the rifle but it's still worth that I'm sure. I've seen as low as $250ish locally. I got mine online for $239 and with the $40 Remington rebate, that put me at $199 for each rifle. But my wife's uncle did the FFL paperwork for me and that saved some cost of buying online. Of the rifles you already have, I feel like a 243 would round your collection out nicely. If you're getting 2 of them, then I'd probably get a 308 also just because you can find really cheap ammo in 308 sometimes. But honestly, 270, 7mm Mag, 300 Mag are all great cartridges. My suggestion is you probably don't need a Magnum right now because you have a 45/70 and 338 Edge. [/QUOTE]
