Of those mentioned so far, I've owned and still own one or more of the following: Tikka, Hell's Canyon, Fieldcraft, custom on Remington 700, Kimber Montana, Kimber Alpine, and maybe a couple of others that have been mentioned. They have all done what I wanted, what you want and more. There is one that is glaringly missing from these threads, in my opinion. That is the Bergara Premier Mountain Rifle. I have one in 308 and am currently looking for one in 280 Ackley. It gives up nothing to those already mentioned except maybe a little weight; but, not much. If you can find a deal on one I think you would be happy. I'm extremely happy with mine. Oh ya, keep a look out, if you can find one, for a Howa Alpine Mountain rifle. You definitely have a lot of options and have been provided a lot of good options in this thread already.
