110 tactical - down the rabbit hole
Howdy,
Been really interested in the 110 tactical since I learned of it. I initially wanted to get it in 308 for a few reasons I suspect folks may scoff at, mostly related to brass availability and minimizing diversity of calibers. I'd like to become more experienced in shooting at longer distances, using optics (I'm more of a 1:1 and open sights fella, soon to be was).
308 rifle availability seems very scarce, so I've been eyeing 6.5 creedmoor. I know it's better in just about every category but $$ for starting out.
If I want to go 308 still, is there a comparable model that would give me a similar action and trigger? I'm fine with mounting a rail if I need to and eventually upgrading to a chassis system later. Most of my experience with rifles were with intermediate cartridges, so more of a generalized question, is the difference between 6.5 and 308 going to sour any of my experience?
My initial intent wasn't to buy and immediately start tossing parts for aftermarket. I mean it sounds fun, but what lured me in was a rifle that seemed better than the cost to buy. How to get the best bang for my buck tips in general appreciated also.
