Forum shooting challenge: The under 500 500

[nor-west]

You can use a Sako if you can get one for less than $500 with optics Ask my wife. I am literally sitting here laughing as I picture you and @Kiwi Greg looking down the barrel of a $400 rifle. Greg might throw up in his mouth a bit and need to go and lie in a pile of 32" premium grade truck axles recover

This is the idea though, so I hope you guys have a go. Get the guys with experience to do what the newbies have to. If it goes well there should be a pile of respectable rifles for all those guys looking for their first bang stick.

All going well it will be a list of tricks to teach old dogs new tricks.



This is because, as @Rich007 stated, you can only imagine 22 points I would say the record holder will sit in the mid to low teens for a while.



Can't see why not, but if its obviously too flash we will take the piss. I'm curious to know what $500 bought you in 1974?
@scotty has a point.

Sako 270 finnbear with a 2-7 Leupold scope 2nd hand obviously also a BSA 308 with 2-7 Kahles also not new but could and still shoot shoot very well. Probably a couple of grand for either now so wouldn't be fair really.
