"High End" bolt actions

[ReservoirDawg10]

3 on gb over 10k right now

Are they 700's or 700 footprint? Is it bid to that or priced at that number? Are they mil deployment kits/rifles?

My skills are not worthy of an expensive rig. Arthritis and a neck injury prevents me from shooting in the prone position. My Bergara with a Vortex Viper are more than I need.

Run a tripod, it helps a lot

I used to have a bolt action rifle with a wood stock that would probably cost $2000 today if it were still on the market.

It was the Weatherby Mark V deluxe :
butter smooth action, glossy blue finish on all the metal, gloss finish on the walnut stock, etc.

This kind of rifle would probably give me more satisfaction of ownership than an ugly but practical tactical precision rifle built on a olive-drab synthetic stock with alloy chassis.

Those old Weatherbys were beautiful.

I have to admit, a good custom build with the right ammo make me look real good

Bought a CVA Cascade LRH in 6.5 PRC last here to hunt with my Son up in GA. Put a Vortex that I got off of here and it does everything I want it to do. 3 shots @ 100yds=halve inch, Don't hunt but once a year so dropping a bunch of $$$$ isn't worst it.

I went the bergara route for my 6.5 CM then the bergara premier for the 300 PRC, both are good shooters. My Tikka blows them both out of the water in .223. But the money is in the glass. The bergaras wear gen 3 razors and the tikka has a mk5 leupold which was a mistake in buying but we live and learn.

I tried that. No joy.

I just bought a $4k bass guitar. Are my playing skills worth that? Not really, lol. I'm not even in a band. People can like and have nice things just to have them.

YES!!!
they can, and they should!!!
Enjoy what you choose, buy what you choose!!!
I LOVE TO USE NICE THINGS....ever felt the bolt slide on a Kelbly rifle....it's orgasmic!!!
eyes are gone....can't shoot it worth a sh*t....BUT I sure love cycling that action!!!!

All that matters is that it works for you. I wouldn't have known different if a late friend hadn't turned me on to custom built stuff a while back. And my own experiences
