Hey you all,
Many thanks for the replies!

Sounds like I could go with the Ruger and expect some trigger work. Probably could go with something else, but the Ruger " feels" better in my hands than the Winchester or Remington. . . Sako, Browning - a little out of the $ range. Plus I like that Walnut and plan to float the barrel anyway.

Thanks again for your expertice - you all are awesome.

Have a safe & good season,
Tom
