Hello first time poster here so I'm sorry if there has already been discussion on this. I'm selling a tikka t3 lite ss in 308 and using the money for something a little more comfortable to shoot at the range while still being able to hunt with it on seldom occasions(if invited by a friend or get an urge to put in for the draw again).
The tikka is great but it was so light that it didn't make sense when trying to shoot longer distances at the range and anything past a box of shells was not that fun. I thought of building it to something more appropriate but don't have the extra 1k minimum for stock and barrel but instead would buy something that could get me close.
I was thinking of getting the bergara hmr in 308 seeing as I have tons of 308 and don't want to invest in a new caliber. The only real feature it doesn't have that I'm hoping for is a floorplate. (Yes I know, horribly weird in this day and age). Does anyone know if the other bergara floorplates could be made to fit the mini chassis it comes with? Should I consider the sierra wilderness instead? If it doesn't show I'm kinda looking for a one stop shop gun. I know I'm asking a bit much
