Going to buy one in the next month or so, primarily for hunting elk out in Colorado.
I'm looking at the Tikka Whitetail Hunter as a first choice, because it's basically a Sako without paying for the name. If not that, I may pony up the extra couple of hundred dollars and get an A-Bolt with the BOSS on it.
Also, I suspect I'll be shooting at less than 300 yards and would like to hear some recommendations on a good piece of glass that won't absolutely break the bank. I have a 3-9x50 Tasco World Class on my Savage 10FP that shoots 1/2 MOA as a package so I don't really want to pull it off and slap it on the new rifle. Something good in the $200-250 range is what I'm thinking.
Thanks in advance for the comments.
