I'm looking to do more long range shooting. I only own a 10/22 rifle currently but want to get into shooting out as far as 300 yards. I'm a harvard member so that is my max distance for now. and I need a high powered rifle to qualify for the 200 and 300 yard range there not a 22.
I'm looking for something that is accurate and inexpensive to shoot so I can get a lot of practice and build my skills before getting in to larger calibers.
I've looked at the savage Axis II and the Ruger american as well at the Remington 783 and they all seem to be accurate value rifles.
any other suggestions ?
will a 223 which is cheap and plentiful work well ? or should I be looking at a 2-250 which is more expensive but has more punch ?
