I dont like the browning or the savage any thing else is o.k under $750.00

If your set on the .25 I would go with the .25 wssm

What!!! Not a .243 zrex??? you slippin'??? Ohh, nope... I see you already made that suggestion on the other thread. You had me worried there for a minute....

Here are a couple...

Remington M700 http://www.remington.com/firearms/centerfire/700bdl.htm

Winchester Model 70 Sporter III http://www.winchesterguns.com/prodinfo/catalog/category.asp?cat=001C&offset=8

In addition to the two you noted, you can get a 25-06 from most any of the major makers including Remington, Ruger, Sako, etc.
There's the Remington 700CDL which comes with a 26" barrel.
I'd go with a Ruger bolt action, which I think comes with a 24" tube. I know here locally I can get the Ruger for approx. $525-$550. Rings are included, and no bases needed. Add a trigger job for about $40 (if needed), and you're set.

It all depends on what you want. Here are a few I would choose from.


$657 Ruger #1B 25-06 26" barrel




$687 Ruger #1 25-06 26" barrel




$569 Remington 700CDL DLX 25-06 24" barrel




$749 Tikka T3 Stainless 25-06 22 7/16" barrel




Good luck.

The 700CDL comes with a 24" barrel.

I would have to go with the Remington. Good luck.

that .25 wssm sure its short action if that matters to you but according to exterior ballistics the 25-06 is superior to the wssm cartridge and after shooting the two I cannot tell a darn difference between the two except for the cost of ammo, 25-06 is quite a bit cheaper.

Ive been a remington person for along time and will say you couldnt go wrong with a remington but you should give that tikka a gander those are a darn nice rifle. I dont know where Longrifle got his prices but in most gun stores you can get that tikka in blued and with a laminate stock for around or a bit under the cost of a remington CDL, im guessing longrifles pic is the stainless/laminate tikka?? just remember in the end your choice needs to be what you want not what everyone else says to get.... good luck
