With a budget of $3000, If you have a bit of time and are patient, you should be able to find a Beretta 682 combo.
Don't shy away from an older gun that has had some use. The two big advantage of the Beretta 680 series over a Browning are:
1)The Beretta 680 series guns are are easy and relatively inexpensive to rebuild.
2)Barrels and stocks are easy to fit to another receiver, quite often they snap on with no fitting at all.
