To be honest all of them at great introductory rifles. All of them are accurate!
But I would pick the Browning and second the Weatherby.

The recall is a year old, and it was the same kind of crappy recall the Remington 700 triggers were recalled for, it doesn't bother me at this point as all for sale guns will have been remedied.I'm surprised the XPR is even a consideration, seeing how it has a recall on it..
Right, this is a lower model than i'm looking for, it's that price with a scope, which is good value, but don't want/need a scope, you can normally take off ~$100 for the combo scope kits.Savage 111 trophy hunter. Comes w 3-9 Nikon scope. At bimart for $424 and I think there's a savage $75 rebate this week $350 for a new rifle is great.
We got a 260 and shot it today. Sub minute of angle. Out of the box
Yeah. Actually it's not a low end model. It is the regular base model savage. With a low end scope thrown in. You should get 1/2-1 MOA out of the box. Generally out shoots most all the R700s these days. However it is a hunter profile barrel and not a bull barrel. Seriously you aren't going to get better just different.Right, this is a lower model than i'm looking for, it's that price with a scope, which is good value, but don't want/need a scope, you can normally take off ~$100 for the combo scope kits.
Yeah, tell me about it Had to take the Vanguard off as she will not have that gun, does *not* like the lookYou're thread got more complicated since you added a poll.
So, end game for this rifle? My wife shoots 'stuff' with it when she occasionally goes shooting, no hunting or serious work for it. I wanted her to have something a little nicer than her Rem 783, so we're talking looks and finish here, as all these lower priced rifles are pretty accurate.
Really didn't want to go much higher, but if there is something close and has the good looks with slick function, and she likes it.....
