Long Range Rifle Help

[dennishoddy]

Hi There!
This is Loveliene!
Im new in this site!
I'd start with a Google search and go from there. There are so many manufactrers out there that choices can be difficult. You can actually build your own match grade rifle and learn a lot in the process.
Thanks!...
Good Day to all!

Welcome!

I am new and also starting to shoot long range. I would like to ask what people think about the mil-dot scope.
Not trying to hijack this thread, new and am not allowed to start a thread yet and also thought this went along with this thread.

mildot scopes are fine provided you have milrad adjustable turrets and buy a mildot master to use while shooting.

I shoot MOA/MOA reticles. Nightforce NXS NP-R1 reticles.

i dont know about the 308, many better ways to skin a cat.......
you can play with your rifle if you like the sport then invest in some better gear....

a factory 700 in 243 would be the way i go on a budget. get the best you can afford will pay in the long run. would also look at reloading,getting better takes practice and if you dont load ur own, ammo cost will eat you alive. never keep up on the round count for a year ,but i know i buy amaxs in the thousand round lots. great sport will humble you fast.. have fun enjoy .my newest set up.....

ur 06 will do well with a rebarrel faster twisted for the heavies,and a stock swap. what are you calling long range?

HS Precision does make nice ~stuff~.
I've been very pleased with the complete rifle I purchased from them.
(they would have just a stock for your existing -06.
