Wow guys thank you for everything. I'm pretty much a noob when it comes to this stuff but I once got the advice to invest in nice equipment rather than going the cheap way. What I got from ur responses is get a nicer sling, I am staying with the scope, probably not getting a range finder. Spotting scope is needed or I might replace with high powered bincolulars. Bipod is staying, I will need that for other guns so why not invest in a nice one. I am staying with the Remington 700 because this is the base model that police use (before customizations) and that is my future career in a few years and I intend to learn it and hopefully master it beforehand. Hiking in Vermont is cold and those gloves are wicked warm from the reviews. I will buy nicer boots and look at gore-tex. I will get steel scope rings and an EGW rail instead
Once again, thanks everyone so much.
