You probably already have the best rifle. I agree with the poll. However I like the Brownings almost as well. I have a couple Sako's. Great rifles but in my book, Nowhere near worth the extra bucks.
Not if he has a remington does he have the best rifle far far far from it. The new ones are inconsistent at best in quality. The older ones can be converted to a nice custom rifle but then your talking more then any Sako. James accept them for what they are the best production rifle under 1200 dollars sold today.
