MinnFinn,

Went to Gander Mountain and decided to take your advice. I tried-out the Tikka T3, this time in the Laminated Stock. That thing is really sweet! Actions well and feels much more solid than the T3 Synthetic Stock. I also shouldered a Winchester Featherweight - pretty nice too with a more traditional look. The Kimber that bigbulls suggested is really a nice rifle also.

I'm really confused now but leaning toward the Tikka Laminated in a .270 Win. Thanks all for the advice, I'll keep ya posted on what I finally decide on. Like everyone has mentioned, I can't really go wrong with any of the choices. Just depends on what feels right and offers the most bang for the buck;)

This one is real easy SAKO. Not as big a fan of the older ones as I am of the new 75...extremely well built rifles better then the other 2 mentioned and have great features . Nothing wrong with Brownings other then the bolt cannot be stripped they are generally great out of the box shooters. Most need their trigger adjusted which should be done by a gunsmith since the owners manual trigger adjustment is a joke. Weatherbys are very good shooters as well and solid guns their ammo on the other hand is way too high priced .
