Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles got the itch again ...

Want another really nice rifle ... leaning toward the Browning ABolt Mountain Ti. Open to Kimber or Tikka or Sako or Weatherby. Already have a Remington Sendero SF-II so want a different mfg. Looking for something "really nice". You guys got any suggestions? Have to stay under $1500.

Wouldn't send near that much to japan!

Kimber montana 1000 dollars
500 dollars left for scope

or

Remington model 700 and a nicer scope

Under $1500? For just the rifle or does that include a scope? If just the rifle, put together a campfire blueprint...rem 700 action, barrel of your choice, and a McMillan stock with Williams bottom metal. What's not to love?

1500 dollars pretty fun budget to work with

Thought you said you wanted a really nice rifle?

I would buy something Tikka and stainless then put what ever scope you want on it.I am sold on Tikka's they are excellent rifles and I have owned at least a couple hundred rifles.

Actually, the Kimber rifle does look very nice. I have a Kimber 1911 pistol that I love. Question ... when the Kimber site says "match grade barrel", do they really mean match grade by bench rest standards, or would I benefit from shipping it to someone to have it accurized? Match grade to me means that with the righ ammo, the rifle would shoot half MOA.
