My out-of-the-box favorite is a Tikka T-3 Lite I bought a 30.06 and was so impressed with it I bought a .270 also. they both hold zero very well and have very smooth operating bolt. Looks like there are a lot of nice weapons out there. I like the pics of the Kimber's. I don't know what price range they are in, but I only paid $650 bucks for each of my Tikka's.


Better to be over the hill than under it.
