WTB a real nice varmint rife set up for my Nephew this Christmas.
I have spoiled him over the years (he is now 24) with real nice deer rifles and shotguns from previous Christmas’
He lives for hunting and shooting so I figure it’s a good investment so as to keep our sports going to the next generation
You can also help with this investment by providing me with a good buy....
$1,500 to $2,000 Budget (as allowed by my wife..)
223 or 22-250- Nothing bigger. No real long barrels. No AI
Prefer a nice custom rifle.

Darn on the no long barrels....223 PAC NOR barrel built on new 700 short action by PAC NOR. Tack driver, low round count, well below your budget but u would need to cut back the 26" barrel. I just haven't shot it in three years so it's on the maybe move list.
Ride well, shoot straight, and speak the truth.

223 Rem, my favorite cartridge - you can't argue with truckloads of dead PD's and gophers.
24hourcampfire.com - The site where there is a problem for every solution.

Thanks for all the help and offers. I bought him a 223 off of a member. Lilja 20" barrel Trued Remington short action, Mc Millan A3 pillar bedded camo stock timmey trigger.
Should be a great Christmas present for him...
There is an HS Precision in a 220 Swift that I have hinted and really, really want that has been posted in the add section that I hope my wife will buy it for me as a Christmas present..
It would be a win win situation for all of us
Again thanks everyone

I promise I will be the greatest nephew ever!!!
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.
