    I've got a Tikka, doesn't mean I'd pay $5k for one(plus the other bits obviously)

    Also hear the undertones about Tikkas too..

    Sure is scary how fast it all adds up. I got a bit carried away last year with rifles and forgot you don't need a vx6 and 3k gun to put meat on the table as a result I'm trying to do a sub $1000 bush/LR rig, So far I'm at:
    Remington Model 7 7mm08 - $450
    Talley Rings - $99
    Vortex crossfire 2-7 $250
    Reloading bits $155 (dies, brass, pills)

    So far I have a buffer of $54

    A Model 7 for $450? That sounds like good buying.
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    To justify the big expenditure on rifle,scope and gear to my wife I say it's a tool and 30 to 50 deer a year soon cover the costs in meat for us, even the cats eat 5 or 6kgs of venison a week.
