If you really want to lighten your wallet some,
Buy a used M70 in 30-06 or 300 Win, order a McMillan,
Brown Pounder, or other good Handel, have it shipped to
Redneck, get the bolt fixed, trigger done, have him make everything good,
and put the thing together.

You will have a better than average, customized, rifle.
And might still have some green left.

Or, follow the Montana path.
If you win the roulette, you save about $1200.
If you need a barrel, you still save $500+.
