New toy!
« on: August 01, 2014, 09:41:00 PM »
Well picked up a new remington 700 .300 win mag. Been wanting one for quite some time now. I know it's a cheap adl and the scope comes on it is worthless, but for $449 I wasn't gonna get a better deal IMO. For someone who doesn't rifle hunt deer or elk it will suit me fine for bear. I plan on by this time next year upgrading the scope to something vortex,  and buying a good stock.

That'll do just fine. You can do a ton with that gun. Good purchase.

I did the same thing with an -06.  Put a Bell & Carlson Alaskan II stock, single piece rings and a Vortex scope.  I also got a clearance deal on the detachable mag conversion so that is on there as well.

At the end of the day, you end up with a fantastic rifle for a very competitive price.
