To say these rifles are 'customized' is an understatement. The bullet are also 'customized'. Wouldn't you guess those winners have thousands and thousands of dollars invested?chickenmcnasty said:But aren't these highly customized with a lot of money invested? I'm just a guy with a stay at home wife and 3 kids. I just want to pop a deer at 200 and maybe over. I just don't have the money to invest in state of the art equipment at the moment.52Bore said:First 3 places at the 500 yard any gun match at the NMLRA Championships shot 45 cal Knight's 1:20 with Black Powder and 500+ gr bullets.
Good scope is critical for elevation and windage changes - repeatability. The load has to work in the gun!
It could be one of these might work for you, or not. That 50 caliber rifle you mentioned previously would be just fine for 200 yard and some longer shots. After you purchase a rifle and a scope, you yourself will have plenty of dollar invested, and it won't stop there. Hopefully your stay at home wife can keep the 3 children family going by utilizing garage sales, coupons, sales, luck, and sacrifice on your part. Just kidding.. enjoy!
