[QUOTE="STWdude, post: 513932, member: 31869"] These guys are showing you some really nice stuff, but they've blown your $1K budget outta the water. I'm hearing some really good things out of the Savage camp, but I've never owned one, so really can't attest. I assume the $1K is for a "turn key" rig, so go with a Rem 700, maybe a Sendero style (HSP stock). 7mm mag is a top notch caliber with factory ammo very available unlike a .264 as mentioned. Two things to do: Trigger job - tune it down around 2lbs. Good glass - It's been said "spend at least half the rifle cost on a scope". I would spend about the same, but that's just me. Happy hunting dude! [/QUOTE]
