A Swiss SIG 55x semi auto rifle of some sort. With a nice optic ( optic at my expense I read the rules )

Either a L-39 Lahti if I could fine one in decent condition under $10K which might be tough.
However, I would most likely pick up a Sten as they are still routinely under $10K. |

Reising M50 or perhaps and STG57
I kind of want a Reising but wouldn’t pay what they get for one. I really want an STG57 but once again out of my comfort range for a semi. |

Best 1896 Mauser Broomhandle Red 9 10k can buy.

3" ordnance rifle, probably from Hern Iron Works. I want one badly. I would use the residual ~$5200 on a carriage.

Not sure which one yet but definitely one of those. I handled one at a gunshop in WI and the slide frame gliding like on roller bearings almost melted my mind. |

Hmmm...
Had you asked me back when I lived out west and regularly had access to 1000+ yard ranges (and the eyes to make it worthwhile), I wouldn't hesitate to say say some .338 Lapua boot gun... probably the Barrett MRAD, but without the rest of the money going to the optic, that would be a price prize. Now? Shit eyes and shit access to ranges? Probably a variant of the Blaser R8 in 6.5 Creedmoor. I'd bet it wouldn't take long at all to get to 10k, even without an optic. I just love the bolt feel on those. |

Here’s an example from a butterfly, an example that it can be happy on a hard rock. An example that it can lie on this unsweetened stone, friendlessly and all alone. Now let my bed. I do not care.

I would like a really nice long range bolt gun and all the stuff to support it. Optic, Thunderbeast can, components and reloading gear, etc. I think it could be done for $10K.

Either that, or I'd have HS Precision build a takedown rifle in .308. |
