First, I would like to apologize for bringing up a topic that repeats so often, but here I am. I am looking for a scope that is Around $600 Ffp Enough internal adjustment for 800-1000 yard shooting Bonus points for mil adjustment/reticule and great warrantys/company reputations

So, what I am hearing is buy a complete rifle, and upgrade it over time. its just I was hoping to get something relatively inexpensive to start with, and be able to upgrade it to a relatively high end overall rifle, without replacing every piece. Eventually, I hope for it to be something oogle worthy. and yes, that is shallow of me, but hey.

Guess I should have mentioned, hobby/ target shooting, not hunting, and I'm a relatively big fellow, so not worried about weight, p.s. any Illinois laws to be aware of?

I've done some shopping, and have something of a plan. I have a friend who's dad builds at 15's (yes, I know it's not the same). My thinking was that I would want to get the best upper and lower receivers I can find, but use cheap furniture, barrel, and scope while I learn how to shoot, and , in time, as I hit the upper limits of its capability, upgrade those last parts. 1st part of my question, is this a terrible idea? 2nd, do I need to buy anything other than the receivers in good quality to begin with? 3rd suggestions as to the best receivers? My hope is to have the gun (and me) capable of sub moa in time, but now I'm looking for low entry cost.
