[QUOTE="joseph, post: 448456, member: 19151"] I suggest you sell the Remington and buy a used Savage long action since you want a 30-06 or a short action for a .308 or .243. Then buy a new barrel which you can swap out yourself. Then sell the old barrel to recoup some money. You can also glass bed your action in the original stock yourself. This should keep you under $1000. I do not like brakes which make to much noise. If recoil is a big factor for a brake a .243 will kill a deer at 1,000 yds without much recoil plus they are very accurate. A 1 in 8" twist for the .243 will allow you to use bullets as heavy as 115 grain for very long range when you reload. joseph [/QUOTE]
