Hello again guys, well I am tired of dealing with scope issues on my SKS so I am in the market for a .243 bolt rifle to help with the local coyote population. I am looking for used due to my low budget of $300-$400. I walked around Gander Mountain today and while they had a decent selection of some new and some used rifles in my price range, I know there are some models to stay away from. Can someone give me a few examples of the rifles not to buy in the above price range. I am asking because not too long ago Wally world had what I thought was a good deal on a Remington 710 with scope for $300. Luckly I searched here about the rifle and learned more bad than good about it so I passed on it. BTW, most if not all of the used .243's at Gander Mountain were 710 models. As always, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
