Cant go wrong w/ the remington 700SPS stainless(dont get the black one) or the browning X bolt, or the savage 112/12 accustock/accutrigger model. fondeled all these a few weeks ago and was very impressed w/all of these, especially w/ the browning and the savage. theyre all around 600$NIB. I have a remington 700 in 7-08. great caliber w/ low recoil and plenty of power for most big game. There is also alot of aftermarket parts for remington 700s if you ever what to upgrade, or trick it out.
