Best bolt under.....
jmr has it right....for any given condition(s) there are better fits than others.
my $0.02:
- Win 70, the year production makes a lot of difference. pre '64 or the last two years, otherwise, not for me
- Tikka t3, i kept it for about 6 months, .223, it is a great rifle but something, i can't tell you what just did not work for me. that's why 'personal preference' is always pointed out
- Weatherby VS2, again my two cents, hands down the most fun, accurate and comfortable rifle you will find in that price range..i have three, .223, 257 mag (just because i love the caliber) and 300 wthby mag. I reload for all calibers, all guns. my 223 is just...well, i may as well be a lilttle kid giggling all the time shooting it.
- Savage 110, again i have three, all long action, 223, 308 and 7mm rem mag. none are stock. love em and tinkering with them just can't be beat. if i ever finish the 308 i'm thinking it will outshoot the Weatherby (not the 223) just because i've had so much fun playing around with it.....pieces and parts are plentiful.
- Rem 700, there was a day. not anymore.
Just my $0.02. happy shooting whatever you decide. kb
