Wanted to know what would be a good choice for my first 300WM. I would like to stay under $1000 for gun only and save up for some good glass later. Would like to get into some long range shooting. The most long range shooting I have done so far is what I could get away with my .308 AR-10.
Can I get a decent 300wm for under 1k and if so what brand would many of you recommend me going with? I have seen some beautiful Browning X Bolt White Gold with Walnut Stock Rifles out there but they are over $1,000. Should I buy new or try to find a clean used one out there. Go with a wood stock or synthetic stock? What barrel length is preferred? 26"? Just wanted to get some feedback from some who have previously been down this road.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.
