    I just looked up 'cerakoting' - it's an epoxy/ceramic finish and is considered very durable. You can get it in over 100 colours too - you got lots of choices there :) As mentioned - you could just...

    I would get a gunsmith to satin bead blast and reblue - while one is at it looks like some of the action screws could need a dress up - make the finished job just that much better - its easy to do -...

    Decide on action length. Short action you have 243, 708, 308. Long action 270,280, 3006. As said 243 is great but better for lighter game under 300yds. 708 only wants to be a 308 when it grows up....

    Both are great, but there's no doubt you'll have more ammo availability and choice with .308. Go .308.

    if I had to pick only one and the choice was 223 or 308 it would be 308 every time, way more versatile again hypothetical "if" I had to choose "only one".

    Fire dot is great IMHO. Just helps me to concentrate on my aim a lot better.

    For the extra $300 its not worth it. Its the last thing i think about when shooting a animal, also if its that dim or dark and you need a firedot to shoot its time to go home. For me its not a game...

    I liked the firedot in the VX5 I had, I think it was only $150 difference when I bought it.
