Looking for an accurate budget .308 target/sniper rifle.

I am looking for help in finding an accurate budget .308 target/sniper rifle that I could use to hunt with. I am looking in the $300 to $700 range I know, not too much to ask right?

Howa, Remington, or Savage take your pick and you'll be just fine. As funds allow upgrade the stock and bottom metal. Do you have an optic? It's just as important of a decision as the rifle itself.

Rem 700 aac-sd goes for a little over $600. I saw one in my local walmart recently. Savage has some good choices too.

Try to find a varmint barreled Remington 700. There are all kinds of flavors. If you can't afford a scope to go with it, buy one of the package deals that comes with a cheap scope just to get you out shooting. Everyone starts somewhere.

If you want good accuracy off the shelf, buy a savage.

I think that would be a great rifle to start with. You cant go wrong with a savage.
Good luck

Bud's has Tikka T3 varmints for just under 700$. Worth a look!

Both the Tikka T3 Varmint and the Remington PSS are great choices for you.
