i have found the caliber i am looking for and it is the .260rem.
i have 3 options that i think will suit my needs.
1. thunder valley precision custom build by Tom Sarver-around 4300 bucks give or take
2. tikka T3 varmint in .260-around 1000
3. savage model 12 LRP in .260- around 950
my budget is around 3000 but willing to go a bit more for the right set up. if i go with the savage i want to drop it into an xlr chassis and put a NF or vortex on it and just run with that.
not to sure on the options for the tikka.
as for the TVP rifle, 4300 gets you a custom top of the line rig in around 3-6 months. the price not including optics, with optics its over 5000.
anyone with some advise or guidance please help me out here. i am mostly torn between the savage and the TVP custom. i do know tom does some amazing work but to a weekend shooter for now is all that money gonna be worth it? or should i just go with the rigged out savage and shoot the shit out of it? also anyone with some experience with the savage please let me know how it performs for you.
