Hey all, I was needing help with a rifle choice. I'm looking at the following rifles and for other suggestions for a $500 and below budget: Winchester 70, Remington 700 (BDL or ADL?), Savage 10FLP, Weatherby Vanguard, and I think that's it. Keep in mind those were all found at Wally World except for the Savage.
So am I best off getting a Wal-Mart gun (I don't know if there is a difference between buying one there or ordering one from the site or through an FFL dealer) or looking through pawn shops? or getting one new through an FFL dealer.. or searching online at some auction. In other words, where is a good place to get a budget rifle?
I know everyone will say it boils down to personal preference and what I'll be using it for so.. I'll be using it for hunting across fields and plains, I want accuracy up to a 1000 yards though. Whichever one I decide on I will be putting a Harris Bipod, Bushnell Elite 3200, and maybe a Jewel or Timney trigger unless I get the Savage with the Accutrigger.. What are YOUR opinions? Thanks! (The rifle will mainly be used for target shooting and hunting, I know most deer are taken within a 100 yards but I want MOA accuracy beyond that)
