$1700 for a new bolt gun and glass? Man, sounds like Christmas!
Honestly, as has been said many times over, you cannot go wrong with a high end Winchester model 70 or a Remington 700. Do you like synthetic/stainless or walnut and bluing?
Here is Remington's current offerings in 30-06 for the 700:

I am partial to Remington since I own a Sendero and absolutely love it. Problem is, it isn't offered in 30-06.
A 700 CDL with a mid-range Leupold scope and rings would leave plenty of cash for ammunition. Maybe even another gun!
