"High End" bolt actions

Humble pie taste even more bitter with age.

I use to make an 870 sound like an SMG....even had the police called on me.
Mind you I knew the officers and we had a good laugh.

I was dealing with Karen 30 years ago...before it was the hip thing to do.

Arthritis, nerve damage and eye surgeries have cut my shooting way back.
Sucks when your trigger finger doesn't want to bend.
At least it's not the hole finger.

Mind you I am still above par as far as shooting skills go..if I aim at the blue man ballz I will hit somewhere useful...and I can calculate long range drop ballistics in my head well enough to hit the flying monkeys.

Ok...time for my pudding and meds...

At least you're still out there. Had a late friend that was a diabetic, couldn't feel his fingertips
 
Oh an my big thing is optics.
I can skimp on a rifle as long as it is decently accurate, but I am way more picky on optics.

My friends laugh at me for running a Nightforce on a Ruger American.

Tough scope for a beater rifle.
Most people can't afford a NF. Main thing is you hit what you're aiming at. To me that's the most important thing
 
This tread is about cost vs performance.

You can get a lot of gun & optic for under $1000 today.
$1k-$2k can really improve your quality.
$2k plus...performance vs cost is harder to justify but is worth it to some.

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.
