Flip a coin. I would look at the Sakos and Steyrs. They have both SS or Blue, Woodor ...ug Synthetic stocks. They both have models with excellent open sights.....andthey also have their own scope mount systems that are superior to most other off the wall stuff.......you will need a scope when you get older![&:]Then I would put a Zeiss Conquest variable power scope on it for a rifle that will outlast you and yours.
