[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1526622, member: 12995"] First, just making sure you know that you'll only get about 500-600 rounds of accurate barrel life out the .26 Nosler, regardless of what rifle you go with. But you said it's strictly for hunting, so it should last a good while. Next, if this were my choice, it would be a tough one to make... The XB McMillan has a better stock on it, but the CA Ridgeline has a CF barrel. The CA actions are based on a 700 footprint, so almost infinite upgrade options for stocks, magazine setups, accessories, scope bases, etc... So, the choice is very hard. EGW makes bases for both, and the Browning comes with a McM stock already, and it has a 1:7 twist (CA has 1:8), so you can shoot the new Berger 156 when it comes out, and the Matrix 160's... I'd probably go with the X-Bolt HC LR McMillan... [/QUOTE]
