New Big Game Rifle

this isn't on the list but i bought mine in encore with a 16 1/4 MGM barrel with a high plains custom gunstock( its a rifle).
recoil is nothing to worry about, a 243 it seems like. i have had a stroke, so my right side is about 15-20% good, so i can tell :D;)
120 amaxs with a charge of imr4350 makes it .3" at 100yds and next week i'm planning on using it for deer with a 120 ballistic tip with some superperformace behind it
 
I hate to seem "un-American" but the Weatherby Vanguard is the best of the bunch out of the OP's choices IMO. The Howa is a great action based on the old Sako L46 and it's tough as nails, it has a great factory trigger, and comes with a nice B&C stock. There is nothing at all on the rifle that needs replacing IMO. I can't say the same for the other rifles you mentioned. IMO, of course.
