    Budget for the Rifle only is around $3k, Optics only around $500 and what ever for mounts.

    I've considered a few second hand setups but have decided to go new.

    Will want to use it at the range to punch little groups in paper, ring some steel gongs out to several hundred meters and shoot a few Goats.

    Be good if I could shoot accurately it to 3 or 400 meters.

    A scope that has a reticule for .223 trajectory would be handy.

    Just don't really know what's available out there

    Cheers

    The reason I asked is I built one to do all that (well i actually built 3 but sold 2 and kept two), with all the good bits and now trying hard to decide if I want to keep it or not. It is a "frankengun" but with all the good bits. 3k would get you a good new gun though
