I lucked into $1,600 cash and want to spend it on my first bolt rifle. Anyone want to recommend a rifle, scope, smithing, and accessory package that's around $1,600?
So far I'm torn between an FN PBR XP and CZ 550 Varmint Kelvar in .308. I'm not geeked on the CZ's magazines where you have to rock them in place, but I have not actually tried one. (Does the FN aka pre '64 Win do the same?).
I have no idea about glass. I'd like something mil dot, but other than that, I have no clue regarding fixed vs. variable, etc.
