I have been wanting a long range rifle [600-1000 yds] for punching paper for some time but I thought the cost was prohibitive. Well, maybe not.
My best friend just gave me a stock for a Rem 700 short action, Choate "The Ultimate Sniper" [yeah, I know- it's kinda cheap looking & heavy but looks like it will do the job]. Will be shooting from a bench.
He will also sell me a 700 short action from a .308 rifle he has [very reasonable].
So, I know I need a barrel and maybe a trigger. Need suggestions. Caliber .260 Remington.
Any advice will be appreciated.
