Hi,

I was asking elsehwere for suggestions for a good all-around long-distance capable varmint/target gun. Mostly target and some pest control on my country property. I like the long-barrel types and don't mind weight cause I shoot off the ground or back of my ATV. I don't want to spend more than $1,000 area unless you think it's really worth it. These were some that were mentioned to me:

Remington 700 VT
CZ-527 VT
Tikka T3 Varmint
Ruger M77 Mark II

Also an affordable long-distance ammo and an all-around mid-range .223 ammo.

And mid-range ($) scope for up to 400 yards about?

Thanks
