    Rifle Purchase Help

    I am finally going to pull the trigger and get me a shooter. Looking at Savage, Tikka, Remington, or custom. It will be left handed and probably in 6.5. Looking at spending about a grand on rifle and another 5 or 6 on glass. I can get discounts on Vortex and Trijicon with LE creds. What would you guys do?

            Browning with Leupold Glass would be my choice

              As far as the custom rifle goes, I was talking to one of my buddies who is a gun nut and said that Jigsaw out of Giddings recently had one completely over the top for 2300. He was figuring a lot could have been shaved off that price and get one for closer to 1300 to 1400. May be off. I was going to talk to them and see.

                Looked up the Tikka and only have two rifles available in left handed. The Wideland is awesome but not in LH.

                    Get a sako and get a legit hunting caliber like a 30-06 instead of 6.5

                    Save your $ on the glass and just get leupold or Zeiss in 3-9.

                      Another good option would be the Bergara b-14 HMR in left hand. If you wanted to cut down on weight you can sell the factory stock over on Snipers Hide or the Long Range Hunting Forum for $200 - $250 and swap in a light weight option. Vortex Viper PST Gen II or the Athlon Ares BTR Gen 2 would be great options, Doug over at Cameraland has a display Ares on sale for 699 at the moment.

                          I have a mark v accumark lefty in .257 weatherby I’m selling. $1200, it’s a shooter for sure and had less than a box down the barrel.

                          Can’t go wrong with tikka or Bergara

                            Tikka CTR. Bought one about a month ago and it is a legit 5/8 MOA rifle with factory ammo.

                            This is the first 5 rounds out of the second box of ammunition.
