New Bolt Action Rifle Recommendations

[nrpate05]

I've had a few Bergara's and they've always shot well. Picky sometimes, but never difficult to find factory ammo that was sub moa.

Tikka.

$1,000 for the whole setup or just the rifle? I've heard nothing but good things about tikka, grew up on winchester model 70, rem 700 and marlin. Having said that I traded in a Weatherby Vanguard that wouldn't hold groups for a Seekins PH2 in 7mm Rem Mag and it was well worth it.

Just get a Sako. The new model 90's are mint.

Of the choices provided, I'd go Remington. I have a bunch of them, and they all shoot great. I get a Timney trigger installed right off the bat, regardless of when they were made.
As others have said, Tikka T3 is also very hard to beat and checks all your boxes. I've had a number of Browning's over the years and about half shot good and the others didn't. I've never had a Savage, but my wife has had a few. They all shot very good but to me they don't look all that great.
