[QUOTE="BJH, post: 1418471, member: 93876"] The first consideration I would suggest is getting into a high end scope if you don't already have one. The next thing is to work over an existing gun and have it re barreled to whatever cartridge you decide is right for you. Of those you listed in the original post..I would recommend a Cooper. They are very well built rifles in my opinion and shoot very well. Weight isn't too bad either. I think you would be very happy with one. If looking at an 'off the shelf' rifle..consider any of the Browning models. I have yet to handle a Browning rifle that will not shoot under 1 MOA with factory and 1/2 MOA with hand loads. There are a lot of rifles out there that are very good. But IMO a Browning is tough to beat for a factory rifle and you can probably find one chambered for any cartridge you want. [/QUOTE]
