My vote would be for another rifle not listed, I'd go with a Remington Mod 700 XCR II and the left over money would go toward a Leupold VX3 3.5-10x40 scope, for just a little more than your rifle budget you could have a first class rifle and scope, I have Had at least a 1/2 dozen of these rifles and every one has been MOA accurate right out of the box, they are surprisingly light and feel/handle great.............Good luck...................Hb
