I am usually good at researching the things I am interested in, but I am having a hard time finding a modern rifle that comes from the factory drilled and tapped for an externally adjusted Unertl Scope. I came across a 15x ultravarmint, and would like to make a bench gun--just for fun, not competition.
I am pretty sure a feller could order one from the many custom gun makers, but I am really hoping to find a gun in the sub 1500 dollar range. I heard Ruger made a NO 1 target that came with scope blocks, but I am not sure.
I want to either get 6.5 or 308--or something else modern and capable of 1000 yards. Hell, I would love to smoke my "modern" shooting buddies with a good ol' 30-06 if I could find a gun chambered and tapped. I can't afford a pre-64 bull gun so that is out of the question.
Any and all advise would be appreciated.
