[QUOTE="BYF, post: 876604, member: 73327"] Hello all. I have had a couple guns stolen from me and I need to replace 1 of them. The one I want to replace was a Mauser 30.06. It had trigger, stock and barrel work done to it. It was my favorite hunting rifle. It had taken antelope out to 568 yds in South Dakota. Because of what my insurance gave me I'm looking at spending about $1000-$1200 on rifle, rings and scope. For the scope I was thinking Bushnell elite 4200. The rifle, I'm torn between, Weatherby Vanguard S2 and Tikka T3. I have looked at others but so far these seem to fit the best. Just hoping someone can sway me one way or the other. Also I have read about Savage having a good product but The models I have seen, Axis and Trophy Hunter, have such a price difference I didn't want to purchase something I would have to put $$ into to make it work. Nothing I have read gives models they just say "Savage/Stevens" I do my own handloads, It will be used for hunting deer, elk, antelope in open country so I would like something I can use out to 700 yds. I want 30.06 because I'm already setup to load that round. All help is appreciated. Thank You [/QUOTE]
