Buy a Stevens 200 which is a Savage 110 minus the accu trigger and then buy a really nice scope. Will be as good as any $400 savage package but you will have a much much nicer scope..That's what i did anyways and am very happy with my purchase. Spent $240 on the gun and about $200 on a scope.

Personally I'd say the Howa or a Weatherby Vanguard. Although you should be able to lay your hands on one for around $400 easy. Check the used racks some really good bargains to be had.

My choice would be the Remington SPS with its 24 inch barrel.
