I've shot 3006 my entire life, started on my grandpas 1903 and went from there. I still have his 1903 and when I was looking for a new rifle I bought a 710, not knowing what a huge pile of -CENSORED--CENSORED--CENSORED--CENSORED- the 710 is. From the 710 I said -CENSORED--CENSORED--CENSORED--CENSORED- it I'm getting a nice rifle, so I went to the gun store and settled down with an x bolt. I like my x bolt, it's classy and a good deer gun (if I ever get a chance to deer hunt) but it's not what I want and zero aftermarket industry for it. When I go long range plinking and fun at the range after a day of 3006 rounds my shoulder hurts and it's not really a fun round to do long range with. I was thinking ok, well let's get into the 300 win mag but that's $1 a round so I'm looking at a 308 rifle. But ahhhhh, there are so many 308s to choose from and I would like the tactical chassis look with the pistol grip. I've always had a little problem with parallax In a scope and I found that if can get my hand lower and the scope little higher I can stay on target better. I'm not looking to break the bank but I'd consider sinking $1500 into this rifle. So I call unto thee, guide me with your ways so that I can make the best educated guess possible.
Factors to keep in mind, I love in southern ca so space and range time to test items is slim to hahahaha your funny. Thank you in advance.
