[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2807762, member: 109862"] For moderately priced firearms under 1000 (which is all I can afford at this time haha) my experiences with savage 111s and Weatherby vanguards has been just excellent. Do not go super cheap. Not worth it. As in “the savage axis is a cheap piece of junk with metal that rusts notably faster than other rifles (my real experience - rust spots on alleged STAINLESS STEEL) with such a flimsy stock that any real recoil makes accuracy a challenge - my father in laws friend has one in 30-06 and it shot much much better after putting it into a more rigid aftermarkwt stock of some kind) The 111 on the other hand is great and shoots lights out. Ugly or not. The Weatherby vanguard is probably my vote for best value for your dollar in any production rifle made today. They shoot, theyr attractive, they’re a bit heavier but for me that’s a good thing, and ergonomically I just love how they feel in the hand and to shoulder. For under 1k 1st vote wby vanguard 2 place savage 111 3 place tikka of some kind. Yes I’m putting tikka behind savage and weatherby. Yes I mean it. [/QUOTE]
