Pelican Case is a great suggestion.

Agree. I'm a big fan of Tikka's. Especially when you have to carry one on your back. You'll have to struggle to make it all the way up to $2K with one though. It pains me to have to recommend a non-U.S. rifle however so the Kimber sounds great to me. As I recall, when I was searching, Kimber didn't have a left-handed model.try tikka and leupold/zeiss scope
are you walk hunting,stand hunting?
if you put a pachmyer decelerator pad and a gentry custom brake on it,you shoul be good to go.you should keep it light

There was a time when I swore I would never (as in never, ever) own a Savage rifle. I now own several because they shoot so incredibly well. A Savage Model 16 Weather Warrior with a good old Leupold scope will do you just fine. That is coming from a Guy who has owned Cooper, Dakota, and custom builds with S&B, Swaro., Nightforce, and Zeiss glass. My current (normal distance) go to rifle is a Savage 16 in 7mm-08 with a Schmidt and Bender Summit scope. A Leupold (or Weaver) scope would serve just as well....a solid rifle/scope that will last for years with at least MOA accuracy...
I would buy a used Rem 700 Walmart/Dick's special, top it with a Leopold of my liking and keep well over a grand in my pocket.
I do know that I want a synthetic stock
