I am looking to build/upgrade my Model 111 Trophy Hunter in 30-06 w/accu-trigger. I am looking for long distance accuracy and like everyone else, im on a budget. I have looked at a ton of stocks, barrels, Optics, etc. My questions literally begin from bottom (stock) up. My model is a centerfeed, drop box mag, with bolt release in trigger guard. Any suggestions on the stock? at this point I think I want to stay synthetic. The stock will also have to have the capability to fit a varmint/bull barrel because that is the next step. I am looking for a heavy barrel to aid in reducing recoil and improving accuracy. Suggestions on brand and twist? Optics will come later, still trying to decide where to go with the optics. Basically would like to stay within $500 for stock and barrel. I appreciate any help and advice.

Thx Brangus
