300 Win Mag

    I've got myself fixed on purchasing a rifle in 300 Win Mag, but can't decide on what to get. I can pick up a NIB Rem 700 Police for $660. Then I ran across the Sako TRG-42 (haven't found a price for it yet, but reckon it is really high). Of course, I could save a bundle by looking at the Rem 700 BDL or ADL. Or a Savage.

    What do y'all think? Primary usage will be target shooting, 100-400 yards. Would also like to use this rifle for elk hunting if/when I get the chance. Is that a good price on the Rem 700 Police?

    as a major elk and deer hunter I think that the 300 is a great round a bit heavy for der, but great for elk!!!! I would go with a 700 rem any day of the week. I feel that remington makes the best rifle for the price and if you see most custom rifle makers use the 700 action so that should tell you what a good gun they are!!1 I know by saying this Im opening myself up to critsism, but this is my thought and feeling !!! Good hunting!!

    this is the first day of the rest of your life, SO BUY A GUN & PROTECT IT !!

    The Sako is made by Beretta,and over priced in my opinion.But it is a good Rifle,I guess I own more Remingtons than anything.But the Savage package is a great buy,plus it will save you a bundle.I have a Savage Model 11F and it shoots as good as any gun Ive got.Good luck.


    Best!!!

    the only thing i've got against the rem. is the 'c clip' extractor, the win. m-70 classic and ruger m-77 mk 2 both have the 'claw' type extractor and controled round feeding and would get my vote. the sako is also very good but pricey.

    I have two Rem 700. One 7mm mag and one 7mm-8 mountain rifle. Both are great rifles. I just helped my buddy by a 300 mag and we ended up with a tikka. They're owned by sako and come with sako barrels. Best trigger pull I've ever seen out of the box. Check them out. They run around 600.00 bucks.

    Thanks guys. I've got a couple of Sakos and a Savage bolt, but I don't have a single Remington 700. I guess the collection is really incomplete without one. So now I just need to decide between ADL, BDL and Police. I'll probably go with the Police, since it will see much more range time than hunting time. $660 looks like a pretty fair price for one, too.

    Thanks . . .
