I dont like the browning or the savage any thing else is o.k under $750.00
In addition to the two you noted, you can get a 25-06 from most any of the major makers including Remington, Ruger, Sako, etc.
There's the Remington 700CDL which comes with a 26" barrel.
I'd go with a Ruger bolt action, which I think comes with a 24" tube. I know here locally I can get the Ruger for approx. $525-$550. Rings are included, and no bases needed. Add a trigger job for about $40 (if needed), and you're set.
