Your dough, but I'd look elswhere. The charm of the RAR is the price/performance ratio. Whatever you do, it will still be a cheapo, just not cheap. The exception to this is adding a chassis system. There are some nice looking ones and you can probably save some money over a factory model, maybe. I've seen two very positive reviews of the Precision Rifle in .223 and as a result might lean that way for a target or PD gun (if we had any PDs!).
Like I said, your dough, but there are so many nice new models out there now I just can't see blowing serious money on something like that.
Find the thread here from the guy with $900 in a Marlin that he can't sell if you want a real-life example.
