This. Or Remington 700, but that's just how I roll...

Accuracy international with a night force 3.5-15 x 56 with front focal and zero stop

Remington uses the button rifling process as most others and it is the cheapest way to add rifling to a barrel, period!! Most high end barrels have cut rifling, which is more time consuming, but are said to have much better accuracy, easier to clean, etc.

How about this Tikka-

with the right scope, this would be a NICE setup... NICE

I agree, and won't cost you arm and a leg. Accuracy out of the box and sweet, smooth bolt action.

That's what I told my wife, once you go Finn...now I can't get rid of her!

with that tikka and a GOOD zeiss, you'd be under 1800 bucks.

the supervarmint costs your a premium for the rail and cheekpiece
it's the same as the standard varmint model
I have owned one as well as the standard t3 stainless light
They both shot one ragged hole groups

great rifles
the varmint has a longer and heavier barrel and would probably stand up to more repeated firings without heating up and having the groups walk but I never had an issue with the standard one and there was no difference in accuracy


Like I said, the LTRs are tack drives and have a much better stock and are a true short action

I would also strongly consider the new Sako A7, offered in a true short action whereas the T3s aren't

Not knocking the T3s at all, everyone I have owned or shot have been absolute tack drives, great triggers, zero issues

just pointing out other options

The new Xbolt from Browning is a reported tack driver, Bill Wilson bought one for his wife and he told me out of the box it was shooting 1/2" groups, they don't fit me right though, so, with everything, it's got to fit right

Also consider finding an older Sako, probably my all time favorite rifle

I like that!!

I love my T3 Lite. sweet gun and very accurate.

I didn't know that.

Without being sarcastic how is it that a company like Marlin can produce a sub-moa rifle so cheaply whereas Remmingtion produces an inferior product in terms of accuracy?

I would go savage or weatherby. two of the most accurate rifles out of the box I have heard great thing about tika as well.
Me and a few of my friends will never buy another remington.

I recently bought a new .308--- Sako A7 and Zeiss Conquest 3x9 x40.. have about $1000 in this rig. Now I just need to go out and shoot it..lol

Tikka T3. No questions asked

I have a custom .308 that will do everything you want and more. I would put it up against any rifle around. PM me for details.
