The links just goes to the home page. But I'd rather have a $400-500 rifle such as a savage, weatherby vanguard, howa 1500, remington adl or sps and a decent 4-12 or 4-14 power scope in the $300-400 range on it than have a $800-1000 rifle with a junk scope and no ammo.

If I had $1000 budget, I'd do the following:
$400-500 on a rifle
$250-400 on a scope and mounts
$100-150 to a gunsmith for a trigger job and bedding
The rest of my budget would go into ammo or reloading equipment.
