[QUOTE="ltcjwb, post: 1078298, member: 59196"] Best bang for the buck: Remington 700 Long Range, .30-06; +-$800. 26", 1:10 barrel will handle anything up to HSM 210 Berger HVLD, good for anything short of Grizzly Bears at 500 over 500 yards, and should give slightly better than advertised velocity. .30-06 ammo is available anywhere, anytime, just like .308, which I would prefer for the slightly lighter recoil, but it is not available in this particular rifle. Savage 11 Long Range Hunter, .308, +/-$1000. 26", 1:10 barrel, same capabilities, but also has an adjustable brake and adjustable comb. My preference would go to the Remington, but only because I have owned 2, and never had a Savage. [/QUOTE]
