Gday All,
Im hoping to get a little bit of advice please.
Due to licencing Im restricted to shooting 223 bolt action at the moment .... as such Id like to look at building the most accurate 223 I can, within a reasonable price (I cant afford 10k optics etc)
After spending hours and hours researching possible configurations and options Ive managed to just confuse myself further and so Im hoping for a bit of advice on the best components/suppliers to use in trying to build my new rifle and in what configuration and spec.
I do understand that its a personal thing but any advice would be gratefully accepted.
The rifle is going to be mixed use (long range target shooting and varmint work) and doesnt need to ultra light weight ... just really accurate at the longest ranges achievable for a 223.
Ideally, Id like to be able to shoot out to between 600 and 1000 meters (I understand I wont be taking out medium/large game at range) for the purposes of target shooting, and varmints out at 400-500 meters.
Any help regarding barrels, twist, optics and stocks would be greatly accepted.
Cheers
H
