Which would you buy and why? A Rem 700, Weatherby Vangaurd, or Tikka T3.
I was thinking the Rem 700 CDL or XCR, the Vangard synthetic blued, or the T3 blued synthetic. I am looking for a rifle that I can get a limbsaver recoil pad for and one that has a good trigger or one I can easily get an aftermarket. Not looking to customize, just hunt medium sized game. I am worried about the Rem due to the fact that I cannot lock the bolt & hear stories about the handle comming off. I don't really care much for the small size bolt handle either. I hear the Vanguards are choosey about what load you feed them (I don't load my own). With the T3, it is harder to find and I don't hear about them much and I don't care for shorter barrels. Thanks!!!
