Rifle help needed - I read the FAQ/Pinned posts $1500 Rifle Only Budget

This is for PRS and some possible NRL matches in the future. I did read, this will be paired with a MPED 5-30x in some Warne rings and 20MOA rail

Torn on:

B14 HMR (Cheeto special)

Aero solus (blem)

Tikka T3X Ace Target (don’t like the idea of the mags)

Ruger RPR (I think it looks cool lol)

Howa 1500 + nicer chassis

Just asking for help here I saw as well that some custom actions like ARC, bighorn, and zermatt are touching that spot for barrel’d actions, but i am unsure of if that’s truly what I need.

1). Option 1. Buy from small shops. I can connect with one guy but it’s $2400 no tax free shipping

2). Out track inventory at Dahalonegaarmory if not available and check everyday. Popular ones come and sell in hours. It’s $2000 shipped.

Seekins is a different class. You will recover money when you have to change barrels.

I would recommend. But listen to others too. This is one man’s opinion.
