Spend the little extra and get a tikka. I bough a blued version t3 lite on sale for 449. Buy once cry once. I painted the stock in tan and it looks sharp.
I held rar side by side with a tikka and it was not comparable.
I use to own a mossberg 4x4, it was a pretty good gun. But cheap. It Shot good, I just didn't like the fact the bolt would not lock with safety on.
I would also look at TC venture. It's a little heavier than my tikka, but also a tack driver and are underrated guns.

All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.
