Which 223

As per the tag it'll be used at Bisley on targets only. Been doing some reading and think a heavy 1:8 twist longish barrel is in order. 

The crunch is Mrs C has offered to buy it for me so I think budget will be £1200-£1500.

Don't mind less as that'd allow me to add some glass as a package. 

Accuracy is paramount. 

Thanks for reading

Just out of interest why .223 then ?

Surely something like a Creedmoor would be a better option , particularly if you are thinking 1000yds ?
Rifle cost is roughly the same, reloading around 50 % more per loaded cartridge.

I have a P14 and a 1200TX both in 7.62 both single shot. Granted a creed would be a better option but I shoot 1000 3 or 4 times a year I fancied a smaller caliber after shooting a mates 223 remmy. I'll add it to my reading though cheers
