[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 889489, member: 11717"] You are comparing a CeraKote'd rifle to SS rifles. The S2 Back Country has a pillar bedded B&C stock which is better than any of the other offering you are looking at. If SS is alright for you than get a Vanguard S2 SS. Replace the factory stock with a B&C Medalist which has a full aluminum bedded block stock. That would give a better platform than the others on the list. You could do the same with the M70. The only 2 options on your list that I would consider are the Vanguard and M70. They have the best actions and IMO, the best overall accuracy reliability out of the box. Another option is a Howa (which makes the Vanguards) which will have some more cartridge options. If you do some searching and reading in this forum, you will see that the happy vs unhappy ratio of owners of Vanguards (and M70's) is a good bit higher than Rems and Brownings. Savages have a lot of happy owners as well, but I'm just not a Savage guy. the only Rem I would recommend to anyone would be a Sendero. They are good rifles but out of your price range. [/QUOTE]
