Hello all,
I am looking at getting my first rifle and I'm set on an 06. I did some searching around and I can't decide if I should buy one complete or build a custom one. My limit is $1000 not including scope. It will be used for hunting so I think a synthetic stock and possibly all stainless if the funds allow. I am leaning towards a Savage if I buy new but am open to anything if I build it myself. I like the tactical look of some custom rifles (I know it doesn't make it shoot better but looks are well...looks). Any input from the experts out there would be greatly appreciated. I currently hunt only with shotguns and have no rifle experience so go easy on me.
Thanks
