I'm selling my .243 Savage 10 to have some $$ to put toward the new rifle, but nothing really seems to reach out and grab me.
I have issues buying a Ruger because of the crappy trigger.
All of the plastic on the Tikka raises questions about the rifle's sturdiness (the plastic trigger guard on my Savage broke and took the sear with it). Plus, I really want a controlled feed gun.
The CZs have wonderful triggers but are kind of heavy overall. Plus, I would like a 7-08 for moderate recoil and increased deer whacking ability.
The Vanguards are nice and a .257 WM is kind of appealing for the novelty factor, but a 26" barrel probably makes more sense in this caliber.
Remington 700s are quite nice (and out of my $500 price range), but the Savage Accu-Trigger has spoiled me for factory trigger pulls.
Winchester's controlled round push feed would probably work, but Model 70s are kind of scarce right now.
I may need to do the unthinkable and just wait it out for a while and see what comes along.
