Hey again everybody.
So, due to a nice import of late pocket-money, I've now got at least 1400 dollars to spend to really get my hobby started, and this sorta ties with the 'tacticool' thread.
What I've been searching around for is a target rifle, that I can also take hunting with me, and is chambered for .308 (The reloading gear I'll be getting will be used on those cartridges most of the time, with the dies. bullets, primers, e.t.c). After a long search, reviews, magazine snips, videos on youtube, grouping photos, how long the barrels wear out, how accurate it is and blah blah blah, I've come up with 3 possible contenders to face off for who will get the first seat in the safe.
And they are:
1.Remington 700 BDL
2. Tikka T3 Lite
3. Savage 110.
All 3 look really good, all 3 can be made 'tacticool', all 3 are in 308, all 3 also can have spare parts that can be easily sent over. All 3 can fit in the safe just fine. All 3 have either an internal or external magazine of more than 1 round and can load from the top (which will be needed for target shooting). All 3 will last me a good long while and finally, all 3 fit into my budget range.
So, I ask the members of Enough Gun a big question, which one is the best to get? Currently, I'm leaning towards the Tikka, as it looks so gorgeous and only 600$, compared to the 700 which is usually more expensive. The savage looks ok, and the least expensive, but I'm not sure.
If something doesn't work, apply rule .
