I have been reading some suggestions around and am looking for more advice, please. I am shopping for a new bolt gun, read not a Mosin, and plan to spend ~$600 for both the scope and rifle. I was looking at a Savage or Ruger American Rifle to fit the bill but have not shot either. I was thinking .223 because 300 yards is the longest range around and most of the time it would be a 100 yard gun. Plan on shooting at a bench or prone most of the time. Looking at a 3-9x40 scope in the $300 price range as well. It seems Nikon and Bushnell had good offerings at that price point. I know this leaves me wide open, but any suggestions?
This is being funded by selling off a few of my cheaper guns that I don't shoot that includes a Mosin. A Remington 700 would be pretty sweet but no way I can justify the expense with my wife right now. I have to be able to find a bolt gun that is more accurate than a Mosin and a round that is a bit easier on me than 7.62x54R.
