Here's a thought experiment: what five rifles, available on the used or new market for under $400, should every "Rifle Loony" own at one time or another?

Here's my list:

1. Winchester 94, 30-30
2. Remington Model 700 BDL, either 30-06/270 or 308/243 (those are the calibers I see most often under $400)
3. Remington Model 760, 30-06 or 270
4. Savage 99, 300 Savage
5. JC Higgins FN Mauser actioned sporter, 30-06 or 270.

All of the above I've either bought, or seen for sale, for under $400. In fact, depending on condition most on that list can he had for $350 or under. One reason I'm not too excited about the Savage Edge or Marlin XL7 grin

So, what would your choices be?
