My situation is I'm a lefty shooter and need a left-handed bolt action. This is going to be a varmint/long-range setup with a Leupold VariXIII 3.5x10 scope and Harris bipod.
About $225 worth of difference through local dealers (can I do better than about $630 and $405 respectively through any online dealers?). Another factor is the heavier weight of the Remington (better stock).
I know these rifles have been discussed before and I've read back through searched topics but I'd like opinion on one vs. the other. Looking for accuracy, durability, and reliability comments, and whatever else you might want to contribute.
Thanks for your input.
