I have been looking for a bolt action range rifle that will shoot 1/2 MOA or less (100 yard shooting mainly, but will reach out to 500 occasionally). I had my eye on the Remington 700 Police, however while at the local dealer today, I was talked into putting a Custom Shop 40X TDR in .308. Is this gun really $2,700 worth of cat's meow? I don't see any work I would need to do to it whatsoever except maybe some day upgrade to a custom McMillan stock.
What about the .308...is that more or less accurate than .223 or .300 win mag? ..although, I know I will not necessarily be in the mood to deal with the .300 mag every time I hit the range.
This will be my first ever "sniper rifle" build...I figure it may as well be a good one. For the money, should I be looking at something else perhaps?
