Zeroed at 250 yds, it will shoot 3.2" high at 100, 2.7" high at 250, and 4.6" low at 300
...if you use the Hornady 200 Gr. Superformance round. And now you have a 300 yard deer rifle that can be used during primitive season.
Nothing "primitive" about that round.

This is what I was thinking about for my setup.
$350 - Ruger American .270
$350 - Zeiss Terra

Great option, but I don't see how you're going to outfit it with an optic for that price.
Gander Mtn here in San Antonio has the T3 on sale for $599 this week.

Savage Model 11 Hog Hunter 308 (crappy stock but good enough out the box for 1/2"-1" MOA)$400, Sight Mark 4x14x44 $200, TPS XP Tactical 1pc 20MOA base (or similar steel base), $70 with rings of choice just make sure they clear the front iron sight and fit a picatinny rail system.
Next year when you finish deer hunting upgrade the stock to a Manners or HS Precision with DBM, and CDI metal to accept AICS mags.

Remington model 700 for $379.99 and a Nikon Monarch 2.5x10x42 for $330. You'll be a little over budget with tax and rings but it's worth it. If you can't go over $700 then look for a used setup. I picked up a like new Remington model 700 lss with a Nikon Monarch 4X16x42 for $850.00. The lss is nicer than the standard $379.99 sps.

Weatherby vanguard s2 .257 weatherby mag with a nikon scope. Pro staff or buckmasters. The gun is around $550 but if you shop around can probably get one cheaper. Good price for a gun that's guaranteed 1/2" moa. With that kind of accuracy you can shoot them in the head and never have to track them.
