I have a stainless all-weather in 308 that I bought for $650 a while back. At that price and off the rack, it’s a solid 300 yard hunting rifle. Probably more of a referendum on my skills than the rifle.

I have several Rugers, MK II and Hawkeyes. All of them all weather stainless/synthetic. In my opinion the best all around hunting rifle out there. Too bad the the American took off like it did, probably won't be seeing many of the all weather M77 line anytime soon.

At a startup price of $1000.....
A couple of questions:
Do you have to have controlled round feed?.......compare with a win m70.
If not, check out the tikka......
I had to tweak my Hawkeye at first to get it to group.....was a tad frustrating....
That wasn't the case with my mod 70 or my tikka.
For $1000, i dont want to have to tweak nuttin. Just because a rifle says "model 70" on it, does not guarantee that it won't have problems. Here's a model 70 that just came out of the box, a steaming pile o sht. IMO, he's wasted many hours, un-fking it: https://forums.outdoorsdirectory.com/threads/new-winchester-model-70-alaskan-30-06-review.2785525/

I’ve got one in .257 Robert’s that is an outstanding rifle. I actually wish that I had bought two, one for each kid.

My Hawkeye predator 6.5 CM is a good rifle.
