[QUOTE="B23, post: 564657, member: 13222"] My vote would be for something in a "standard" chambering in a long action Rem 700 like 25-06, 270win or even 30-06. They are all known to be excellent shooters straight out of the box and they can be had in a very wide variety of Remmy 700 models without breaking the bank and a pair could be easily found, probably even scoped out, for the amount of money you are looking at spending. These three are your meat and potatoes, tried and trued, calibers that have stood the test of time. They probably don't possess the "cool" factor alot of the new chamberings do because they are pretty much your "standard" rounds but in this situation that is a good thing because it will help lower the price in the used market. IMO, if you start with a Rem LA it pretty much opens all the doors to build whatever you want down the road where as if you start with a SA you will be considerably more limited. [/QUOTE]
