Default Make up my mind!!!!

I need (want) a new gun and I can’t make up my mind which one I should buy. So here are the ones that I have in mind:

Choice 1: Browning A-Bolt White Gold Medallion in 30-06.
Choice 2: Winchester Model 70 Classic, Featherweight, Stainless in 30-06
Choice 3: Browning A-Bolt Stainless Stalker in 280

I will be using the gun for deer, antelope, and maybe elk. All and any help would be really appreciated.

Just found this out that my Uncle got a 7mm STW and that thing kicks some A$$ big time. NOW I am thinking of one. Really liked it today when we we're out and about. Don't know much about it so ALL info would be nice. What does STW stand for?

Personally I don't care for either, but if I had to pick the less of two evils I would go with the Winchester.

Well, since Browning now owns Winchester, is there much difference? I know theres hardly any IF any difference b/t the shot guns.

Buy the Stainless Stalker in 280. I don't think you will be sorry. Federal has brought out several new loads for the 280 in their Premium Ammo line that includes the 140 & 160 gr. Accubonds.
