This set up will get you into any ballpark:
ACTION:
Defiance/Guardian
BARREL:
Krieger 5R 24” MTU
MUZZLE BRAKE:
MRAD RAPID BRAKE
TRIGGER:
Timney
CHASSIE:
AICS 2.0 Folding Stock
SCOPE:
Schmidt Bender PM II 5-25x56 L/P DT P4Fine FFP MRAD CW
BIPOD:
ATLAS BT46-LW17

OP's requirements are MAX= $2K and 500 yards you blew that out with the scope alone. Folding stock! yeah that's needed.

Learn how to read and comprehend, there is absolutely nothing you can teach me. soldier boy

Are you dead set on .308 / 7.62 FULL METAL JACKET (sorry. couldn't resist) or might you be better served by something a little flatter shooting such as .300 Win Mag?

The point being what might be what you think you need today won't be good enough as you 'outgrow' the .308 in the future, and wished you had opted for something 'a little better' but not into the realm of the uber expensive .338 Lapua Magnum.

Just something to think about, while not trying to make your pending decision TOO much more difficult.

WOW toboy I never met anyone who knew EVERYTHING ! ! I guess we should all be so humble with your presence, I thought people always learned something new everyday, I know I did today; encountering someone WHO KNOWS ALL. . . have a great day.

there's no such thing as a "tactical " bolt action. :-)

Truth.

I would rather build off a tikka or howa then a remington 700.. Only because you will have a better stock rifle if you decide to go back

[BigBamBoo]

Tikka. Owned TWO 5R's and they would not shoot to my expedpctations even after a bunch of upgrades.

I owned a Tikka Tactical and a Sako TRG-22 at the same time. The Tikka held the edge on accuracy...not by a lot mind you....but it did shoot just a wee bit better then the TRG. Pretty disappointed after spending what I did on the TRG-22 only to have a lowly Tik Tac outshoot it.

Plus the Tikka makes a great platform to build off of if you want to go full custom with it down the road.
The receivers are extremely strong. Rarely need trueing. The bolts already have a Sako extractor.

But that's just my opinion having owned the above rifles, plus HS Presion, Surgeon, BAT action based rifles, etc., etc.

On your list Tikka but I would find a nice Remington 700 Police model and be done 500 yards all day long!!!!

I voted for the FN, that's what I'd buy. Can these Remington wh0res please STFU, this is a great thread except for the people that continue to recommend a gun that the op doesn't have any desire to own.

Why would you ever want to go backwards?

Maybe he's misguided?
