So, I'm not looking at a $5000 gun here folks, just to be clear...
This came up because Vanguard rifles are on clearance for $350 and they have a 7mm that I think would be great for long distance; but I don't want to unnecessarily replicate what I can already accomplish or dublicate my equipment and need to buy yet another expensive caliber...
So what equipment do I already have. First, I have a range that offers regular 200 yard gongs and has the capability of 600 yard shots. I can probably find someplace that offers 1000 yards.
I have a scoped Savage 110 .3006 with a stash of ammo...
I also have a scoped Savage 111 .300 win mag with a couple hundred rounds...
I've never spent much time sighting in these, but intend to.
Now here's the question.
I have a bunch of .308, mostly surplus stuff. I have a bunch of quality and surplus .3006, and about 200 rounds of .300 win mag ammo.
If I wanted to get into semi-serious (no- I don't want to reload), long range shooting with hunting rifles and calibers, what would you recommend??
So, what would you recommend?
