Yes....That Burris is a good scope.
Trigger Tech is my current favorite.
Why not have a fancy stock?
Slow twist is fine.
I am MAGA.

Make yourself happy. With how it looks, shoots, and what it wears! It's hard to go wrong when buying a new rifle.

I have a .223 Weatherby Vanguard 2 in synthetic but I believe it is 1-9 twist. Shoots 62 grain fine, 75 grain not so good. I think it was under $600 shipped. Have a 3.5 X 10 Zeiss on it. Very accurate.

Gawdy? Yes
But, if you like it, why would you care what anyone else thinks? Exactly, WGAF whether others like it. If you do, go for it. I have a number of mcmillans that have some blue, red, and other unconventional colors. They’re mostly PD and coyote rifles. I like em and don’t ask or care if others like them. As for the rifle, I’ve had very good luck with many Rem 700s.

Thomas Magnum had a stockys laminate, I think the color was Desert. It looked pretty flashy, but using pretty natural colors. I think his was a 25-06, and more of a classic stock.
not sure if they offer the thumbhole in desert.
you know what you want, get it.
Tikkanut is right on if you want a shooter that fits in your truck, and save you money for another trip.
...Actually Sycamore, you are sort of right....

Trigger Tech and skip the Timney.
The SWFA 10x Mil Quad reticle is really good stuff on colony varmints.

Get a 1in 8 twist, load 62 Barnes, they will blow through a big pig shoulders at 200 yards. You could deer hunt with it in a jam with that bullet. If you like the stock, put it on there.

https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog...ngton+700+VLS+.223+Varmint+Laminated+223If your stash of ammo is actually 556 NATO, and not 223 make sure the chamber is in fact 556. There is a difference, and it matters.

I'm going to buy a new squirrel/coyote shooter next week. I have a ton of .223 ammo, so that will be the caliber of choice. I'm looking at a Remington 700 sps stainless, heavy fluted barrel, with a Stocky's laminated thumbhole stock and and an affordable scope with perhaps mildots and maybe aTimney trigger. It's squirrels and coyotes...not Stone Sheep and Brown Bears, so if I miss I'm not getting foreclosed on....🤣 Can I tap into the 24 HRCF brain trust? Is the stock too gawdy?... ![[Linked Image]](http://i63.tinypic.com/ws4a5v.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i65.tinypic.com/29f2x41.jpg) Call James and order a trued receiver from him,along with his 'nut and lug...with a 1-7" spout. Then get Redhawk on the horn and go Terrain/M5 DBM and cut to the [bleep] chase. hint.................
