Greg is the best within a drive from you. I have a custom rifle from him and it is one of my best rifles.

If you can make it to 500 then 600+ is not that much different.
If you shoot with people that shoot to 1000+ I am sure they will have you set in no time.
What caliber is the Sig?
Do you reload?

Are you talking 1,000 yds or beyond? I like Athlon and have a Midas TAC 5-25×56 and it is a nice scope. I like it better than the Vottex's that I have owned in the past.
For long range out to and beyond 1,000 I run Schmidt and Bender PMII's and have used my Nightforce Atacr out to a mile. I have looked though a NF NX8 at a mile and it is impressive

I think that the water temps are gonna keep fish very sluggish for a few more weeks. For me Priest and Old Hickory are in the high 40's to 50°.

There is a rifle listed there that I'd like to contact the seller about, but I'm not paying a damn fee.
This may save me money in the long run

I have sent a bolt handle replaced by accu-tigg
The gunsmith that build my rifle took the measurements and or sent the action off to accu-tigg to make sure that the bolt timing would be correct. I am sure that you could send accu-tigg the bolt and action yourself.
Once the handle is fixed an you check the headspace you may be GTG. I have .308 gauges if you need me to check it for you after a repair.
If you get another bolt Just run it up to Greg at Southern Precision Rifles http://www.bugholes.com/

Congrats it's a nice range. Do you plan to shoot long range?

I shopped for a long time and picked up a large used TL30 from the safe house and then a nice new Superior Supreme SM35 from https://www.parkerssafesandvaults.com/
Parker's is in Shelbyville so it may be closer to you. I couldn't find anywhere that beat his prices and his install service was great.

I'd be a guinea pig today if needed.

One more for the RCBS RC I have a Rockchucker JR that is from the early seventies I think and newer RC, both are well used and are still going strong.

Ronnie Morris if he is still working. In State I'd look at https://www.dgrguns.com/
If not, I'd ask on the CMP or https://m14forum.com/forums.ph -

@MikeW do share! I’ve got 5 Cameron’s but still roll my antique ProPlatinum.
2 Xenons, Ping Answer something and Cleveland Huntington Beach 4 all get played.I have a few camerons and other fancy putters than any sane person should own. I play all of them, I played this one for a couple of years. It has a welded neck and I just don't see the welded necks on the tour or other camerons.
Link to where you can find it on the SC website. https://www.scottycameron.com/authentication/registry/Details.aspx?rn=A019381®istry-submit=search

I need him to buy my scotty cameron tour rat putter so I can buy another rifle

I will reword my statement. 1,000 yards does not require 50BMG. 50 BMG for 300-1000 yards see Handsome Robs post above ▲

1000yrds is not "long range" to me.
-
I shoot LR 1250 a good bit and beyond 1250 when I have access. To me the 50BMG is NICE but not the "king" of LR anymore. The 375/408 Cheytac, 338LM, 416 Barrett and other "big guns" are super nice for "extended" long range.
If you are looking to go a mile our just out a little past that I say look into 300PRC or 338LM. My 300wm is fine out to 1760. I haven't shot my 338LM out to a mile yet but I am sure that it would make that shot easier.
Look into a few gunsmiths, talk to them, and tell them what you want a rifle to do and go from there. Or go off the shelf with a Barrett MRAD, Accuracy International, or other top shelf company. If you are on FaceBook look to join the extended long range page and ask questions https://www.facebook.com/ELRCentral/ & https://www.facebook.com/groups/261263037837539/?fref=nf

Just want to say Hi!
Welcome to 37122 Where did you move from?

I have WWI/WWII Luger's and I'd say that if you care about the collector value at all, then I would leave it as is. If you just want a shooter or display that looks better then I would say seek out a few gunsmith's in TN and see what they say. Do all of the numbers match?

A good one outside of TN https://lugerman.com/
