    Righto, what type of target shooting are you keen on ?

    NZDA style, long range plinking at gongs, or "formal" type target shooting as in f-class or FTR ?

    When you say further than 600, out to where ?

    Do you reload ? What are you currently shooting (rifle, caliber, optics etc)

    Answers to those questions will narrow the options a bit.

    Bottom line, leave at least half of what you want to spend for optics

    Toby, my entire annual shooting budget might stretch to half a dozen of the cases for one of KiwiGreg's toys
