RE: remington or weatherby?
I know this will ruffle someone's feathers.Go with the Remington 700ADL.Weatherby's in my opinion are over rated and the ammunition for their cartridges are outrageously priced.30-06 ammunition is available everywhere. The Weatherby ammunition is a special ammunition made for their guns and you'll pay a premium price for it.Chances are you'll have to order it or buy it through a Weatherby dealer.Very doubtful if your local Wally World will carry it or even small gunshops for that matter.
Kodiak H.M. I agree Browning is proud $$$$$ of their guns. They do turn out quality products but you'll pay for that quality.The Browning's aren't to bad if you can catch them on sale.I bought 2 Browning BAR "Stalkers" for 539.99 each.Retail is around 825.00.I got these at a Bass Pro in Cincinnati.OH.I prefer Ruger's. Ruger produces Quality guns at reasonable prices.
