Same rifle new is $625-650
Add a SWFA 6x that you know won't crap out $200-300
Good bases and rings - $50-100
You could put the same above on a Ruger American, and be pretty close with only $300-350 in the rifle.
JMHO - YMMV

I'm like Tyrone, what use? It ain't a competition rifle, it is a hunting rifle.

OP, seek a platform that is NOT configured for a detachable magazine......since you are in the communist state of NY.
Any chambering(arrow) is not magical,it's the trigger actuator(indian) that defines an accurate/competitive rifle.

Did not surf up the arm, but it takes a man's man to light off a 6.5 cm. That's a 2.559 caliber. Hope it comes with wheels.

Yes. A "6.5 mm" is a .264. A "6.5 cm", however, would be a serious round.
Have a good one,

I like " This rifle has only been sighted in. NOTE: This is the most accurate rifle I have ever seen, right out of the box, shooting factory rounds. "
I bought a new Howa 6.5 CM from Whitakers for about $300, I think? then added a used scope, bases and rings, Boyds stock. Maybe have 700-800 into it. Shoots great.
