I would say a good cheap start would be one of the Remington target model rifles. 513T, 521T, anything in a Remington target model. You could swing one of those for under $500. If you want to move up, go with the CMP rifles. Kimber 82, Remington 40x, Winchester 52, H&R, and Mossberg made one also. The H&R, Kimber, and Mossberg can be obtained for under $700. I have a Kimber that will shoot 199's out of 200 with Federal 711b. I haven't shot a 200 with it, but I know it is possible. Then you move to the big boys. The options are endless, so is the funding required to build one. I would say hands down, the best rifle for the money that will allow you to at least kinda hang with the big boys would be the Kimber 82 for under $700.
