im not looking for a tack driver i just want something higher end and that will last
Im looking for something that I can take hunting/ use for a bench gun when i just want to do some target shooting I have been looking at a few rifles here are the ones i have been looking into.
Don't get me wrong STOCK 700s are great rifles but if you really do decide to bench shoot one they'll be outperformed by the tikkas, weatherbys, and savages.
I'm also considering .243 or .270 I had a .30-06 I just have a bad flinch with that much power
m91/30 sniper
Personally I like the A-Bolt better but the X-Bolt is a good gun too. I love the 60 degree bolt.so the xbolt isnt worth really buying?
I think you will be okay with it though it is a bit on the heavy side (at about 9lbs empty), one thing that I don't like about as a tactical rifle is the lack of a detachable box magazine, though this actually works in your favor for your intended use. It is sleek enough for hunting and accurate enough for a bench gun, the weight and choice of optics (that fills both rolls well) will be your only hurdles.I also came across this deal a fn patrol .308 for $900 are fn good or too heavy for hunting ?
