Hello everyone, I am sure you have several of these threads laying around and won't make anyone answer if they can help to point me in the right direction. I searched and came up with things that didn't help.
I am looking to get a .308 built for a good long ranger. I have not stayed up on rifles in the past 8 years so this is all new info I am taking in.
Options thus far:
Buying a rifle ready to go out of the box besides optics of course.
AI .308 AX series rifle
Surgeon
OR
Building( looks like it will save me a lot of money!)
I have heard a lot of good things can come out of an R700
IF I were to build I suppose this could be an options and from reading these are some mods worth doing?
-AICS chassis
-KRG Bolt Lift
-Timney Trigger
-Defiance Action
-Custom Karbon Barrel with muzzel brake
For this rifle I want precision. Lets say 5k budget with no optics. Let me know if there are better options out there as far as builds go?
Thank you for all the help in advance.
