[QUOTE="reconrover, post: 1977775, member: 91199"] Man, that's quite the price spread! Value and quality for the money, I have always like the Browning X-bolt (for hunting purposes). If you are looking to longer range performance then the question of weight comes up. I've succumbed to selling off my heavy rifles, and realizing that most of the shots are 500 yards and in. I really like the feel of the Christensen Arms rifles...one of those rifles that you purchase, and just keep forever. Bergara are really nice, very accurate...but like quoted above, perhaps a bit heavy for hauling up a steep hillside. Savage has very good quality control on their barrels. I had the .338 Lapua tactical version (hefty). So....low cost pure hunter....Browning X-bolt, higher dollars, lifetime investment - Christensen Arms. Had the Sendero in .300 WM, nice rifle, but the heavier barrel profile is a bit much if your are mountain hunting. I guess it all comes down to ....where are you hunting, and what kind of distances are your launching your bullets over. [/QUOTE]
