Thanks all,
This is all good stuff. I just need to visit the local shop and heft a few makes and models. I have no idea how I'm going to decide though.
I'm liking the new Win Model 70, the Ruger Hawkeye and the Savage Model 11 and 14. My gut tells me to venture away from Remington for this one. For no apparent reason.
And yes, my .243 is an excellent chuck killer and has lay many a whistle pig to rest.
