I have the chance to buy another rifle soon (TAX RETURN!!!). Here is what I am looking at...
.270
Weatherby Vanguard-new-synthetic-$400
Winchester Model 70 Black Shadow, synthetic- used- $385
Savage 110- new-synthetic-accutrigger-$400
Marlin XL7- new- synthetic- $300
Remington 700-new- synthetic- $400
Remington 700- new- Camo- $475
----OR------
.308
Marlin XL7-new- synthetic- $300
Weatherby Vanguard- new - synthetic- $400
I have a Nikon 3-9x40 or a Leupold VXII 3-9x40 to top these off.
I live in Idaho and hunt often in Idaho and Nevada. I will use this gun for the range, deer, and possibly elk. I want an accurate gun.
I am not new to rifles and I currently own the Savage in .223 and the Marlin in .25-06. I have owned in the past the Winchester Model 70 (.308), and the Remington 700 (.223) and I loved both of these, but back then I was not concerned with adjustable triggers, etc.
BOTTOM LINE
I have read that the Weatherby and Remington triggers are adjustable... please inform me about the triggers.... What about the Winchester Model 70 Black Shadow's trigger?
I understand the differences between the two calibers and their pros and cons but at this point, it's more of an emotional decision, but I would like you to tell me what made you buy one or the other....
Thanks
