[QUOTE="Carsyn.22, post: 2154399, member: 104613"] You mentioned budget, yes there are going to be limits, lets just say those $4k plus custom rifles aren't going to happen for me... I plan to make my own stock to save that cost. a donor savage can be found for under $500 and then sell of the extra parts for spare change. The barrel plug and sizing dies would be the unknown for me right now. For now I'm just shopping around to see if I can get sorta what I want and what the cost might be Application is for hunting, (mostly deer, there's a chance it could be used for elk or moose) I spend more time afield in muzzle season than rifle and enjoy the season more because of better temps and less competition from other hunters. I will plan on practicing with it a fair bit too. If I can get good with it out to 400 yards or so then I would consider using it as my only hunting rifle besides the good old 30-30... I currently use bullets from Cecil in my omega but 200yards is really about the max for a traditional inline, recoil is definitely there as well, that's one reason why I am looking at sub cals and perhaps a brake. I will check again but I don't think Cecil uses anything smaller than .45 as that's the smallest legal size for hunting in MB, (I lived there for a while). Thanks for all the suggestions! [/QUOTE]
