Default Which of these long range rifles would you pick?? (also 700p update in here)

For those of you that remember my earlier post about the rem 700P, just wanted to update on what's going on. First I wanted to thank everyone who answered and helped out, it really did help. What i'm doing now is selling it back to the dealer, just can't live with that fit and finish and the rough action. I lost 300 on the Remington, just like ripping 300 dollars up pretty much since i paid a 1000 and the dealer offered me 700 to buy it back. I’m using the $700 I get for it as a deposit for one of the following rifles that will have a smoother action and better fit and finish.

Anyway, here are the rifles with their respective price, the prices of all are about $1500 from impact guns. Unfortunately none of the local dealers have these and I personally don't know anyone who owns them, so I have to order them just based on what I see and read online. If YOU had to get one which one would you get and why? (will be putting a leupold mark 4 scope on it).

Armalite AR-30
Price: $1404

FN A1 SPR

Tikka T3 Tactical
Price: $1350

Also if you know others that I might have missed around the 1500 range, let me know. I'm looking for quality fit and finish in black, reliability, smooth action, and of course accuracy! (even though a lot of these will be more accurate than I am) Once I decide and buy one of these, i'll post pics and a range report on this forum.
