I have the itch to build a new hunting rifle and have about $1,200 budgeted for the rifle itself. Could I do better than the Sako linked below for that amount? Used guns and or unusual European rifles are OK to suggest too.
Here is the Sako I like - the 75 Grey Wolf:

Criteria I am looking for:
Cal: 30-06 or .270. Some flexibility here.
Stock: Laminated Wood
Finish: Stainless Steel Components (or maintenance free, all weather, scratch resistant like NP3)
Action: Looking for a bolt action that is unique and high quality. Although they are excellent, I want to avoid Rem 700 and Win Model 70 actions because I already have them in stock. Need to diversify the ol' portfolio a bit.
Magazine: Preferred but not required.
Thanks in advance for helping me out on this...
