I've narrowed it down to these three rifles in 30-06, the Savage and Winchester are used rifles in decent shape, the Winchester is the plain stocked basic model, made in Conneticut, the Savage is a non-accutrigger version, both are wood stocked rifles with iron sights, and blind magazines, the Ruger is new with polymer stock and magazine and no sights, but it does have scope bases premounted
I did try the trigger on the Ruger and it was quite crisp, I didn't try the triggers on the other two as I was pressed for time, but I did like the heft and point ability of the Savage and Winchester
I've used the Savage 110 in the past and enjoyed it, and the Winchester looked pretty decent as well, all three are pretty much the same price
I'm definitely a wood and steel guy, I was a bit disappointed by how cheap the stock and mag felt on the Ruger, but the trigger pull was great, that said, I couldn't get past the cheap feeling of the American, it felt like a toy
I'm basically looking for a general purpose, do-it-all type rifle, and have narrowed my choices down to these three, which would be the best "bang for the buck" as it were?
