I'm wanting to pick up a new rifle, for going out and shooting some coyotes and prairie dogs. I'm thinking .223, and I'm wanting to keep my cost of the rifle under $600. It's a bit cheap, but I'm just wanting something reasonably accurate for about 200-250 yards, that I won't wanna cry when it gets scuffed up. I've been considering a cheap AR, but I'm really considering a mossberg MVP or a remington 700. Suggestions? Insights? I'm a bit new to varmits, my old lady's dad took me out after some coyotes and prairie dogs after we got done quail hunting this weekend, and I'm dying to go again already.
