best rifle for around $500
I am looking into getting a new rifle in .270 or 7mm and was trying to decide who makes the most accurate rifle for around $500. I was kind of leaning toward a Weatherby Vanguard but I have read some good things about Savages also. If you had the money to spend what rifle would you recommend to a friend?
thanks |
RE: best rifle for around $500
For $500 you probably can't go wrong with a Savage, but I would also look at CZ. I think they are in that price range also if you are talking only Rifle and no scope. I haven't priced rifles in a while but I know Brownings are out of your price range, and I believe Remingtons are too, but I could be wrong. I dont own a CZ but have heard good things.

Tikka, Savage, Weatherby, are all good repitable rifles in your range.
If you haven't thought about a scope and need to save a little more dough for one look at Mossberg ATR, Stevens 200, and the Marlin XL7. These are all decent rifles in the $300 range and will leave you with cash for a scope. Please don't get a scope rifle package or a scope in a bubble pack at Walmart. |

thanks for the suggestions. When I wa talking about the price I am not factoring in the scope. The $500 is for the gun alone. I am even thinking about saving a couple hundred more because I was looking at the Weatherby Sub-MOA. Iam jsut trying to get a good starting point.

You can also get a Ruger bolt action in stainless for just over $500

Lots of quality rifles in that price range. Just go to the store and shoulder them all and see which one fits YOU best.

[/quote] I would look at the Tikka T3. [/quote] Hands down tika smooth action smooth trigger... |
RE: best rifle for around $500
Tikka T3 may run you a shade over 500 that would be my vote but the savage package rifles are a very decent shooting gun and cant be beaten for the price.

RE: best rifle for around $500
Another vote for the Tikka T-3!
