I know I sound like a broken record when people ask about a budget rifle, but the Weatherby Vanguard for around the $400 mark is hard to beat. Mine is in .30-06 and I love it. It's available in both calibers you are considering. It's a bargain.
My only knock against it is it's weight. It's a little on the heavy side.
