Does anyone know if a mere civilian can get that type of rifle? I imagine that set up (rifle, scope) is expensive.

I selected the Remington 700PSS in .308. Topped with a good Leupold scope, it can produce 5 inch groups at 1000 yards. Figure on shelling out $1600 for rifle and scope.

Springfield offers a "Gunny Hathcock" M25 Tactical rifle for a mere $4648.

What calibers does that M25 come in?

Wrong price, I think. A good glass is $1200.

That M25 is ridiculously overpriced.

For that money, you'd be better off to buy a rack-grade M1A, send it to one of the Camp Perry armorers, and get him to put the match package in it. If that's a Springfield scope on it, you can do better than that, too, for that amount of money. Also, they've deleted the iron sights - not on MY match rifle, you don't, faggot.
