    Good scope or Good rifle?

    you have 1000$ for a new factory rifle thats not going to be customized in any way other than floating and bedding, would you pay 300$ for a marlin xs7 with a 700$ scope or 700$ for a remington700 with a 300$ scope? the gun would be for deer with no shots past 500yrds. .308
