Hi /k/

No guns fag here. Looking to get into long range shooting. Wife won't let me get fun guns. "No scary guns in the house". FML.

What rifle should I get for long range shooting?

Scope recommendations?

Ammo recommendations?

Rifling recommendations?

I'd help to be under $1000 for the package but am not afraid of spending more.

Thanks

For real though. Get a Remington 700 sps. I have a varmint on 308. Just shot it today at 750 yards for first time. Spent thw whole time ringing steel but tan out a silhouette and got a headshot. A good thing to remember is that a good rifle with a cheapo scope is useless. A cheap rifle with a good scope is priceless. My setup including rifle, scope, scope mount, magpul stock, detachable box magazine well, and bipod ran about $1730. But with just rifle scope and mount 730 120 and 575 = $1425.

Oh and pic related

Shop around and check budsgunshop.com and use that as a price guide. Figure $25 for shipping and $30 for FFL transfer. Add that to the price on buds and if ya step into a brick and mortar gun store don't pay a penny more than that.

OP here. What scope do you use?
>>
Vortex hst 6x24-50 with mrad vmr-1 reticle

Vortexoptics.com

I did a lot of research and I couldn't find a comparable scope with the same options in that price range. Plus they have a lifetime warranty without exceptions at all. They will repair or replace for free as long as you own it. Even some scopes costing 3 times as much don't have that warranty

as for the rifle, the savage 12 line is nice imo SWFA x10 or x12 would be a great "get your feet wet" option.
