I only have about $500 in this Rem 700 Varmint Spl. 243. Bought the rifle w/4x12 Redfield second hand (but still new), then added Stocky's thumbhole stock, Jewell trigger. Under 1 moa any day and with most factory ammo (which you can find 243 even at "Bubba's Beer Bait & Ammo". A 22-250 would be a good reasonable choice too.
