200yd rifle - 01/05/20
I used to shoot highpower rifle but got old and quit. After being out of shooting for years, I rejoined my old club. I'm trying to keep it informal. They have a league called the Belly Shoot. It's basically a 200yd prone match on a B8 target. I want to buy a new rifle to shoot it. I want a .223 and I'm going to put a VX3i 4.5-14x40 scope on it. What are the pros and cons of the Tikka T3x Varmint and the Remington 700 SPS Tactical? While price isn't that important, I can get the 700 for $150 cheaper. At 200yds, bullet weight isn't as critical as if I was shooting 300-600yds, Any other ideas?
