I imagine price would be a consideration with what you choose, Like the rest of us. Still the Ruger in 223, or 243 with a good scope on her, would fill your ticket well. I was going to get a Ruger in 243, Wound up getting the Remi ADl in 243 instead, never shot it Remi has it for a trigger recall. My other Remis are great, but i had to modify them to shoot great. Stick with the Ruger.
