Looking to get a 6.5 creed. Which platform do y'all recommend I know the Ruger Americans get high praise for how cheap they are. I just looked on academy's website and see Remington and mossberg have some pretty cheap 6.5's as well. Over time I will want to replace the stock, trigger, and bolt.

Started off as a Savage Axis from the classifieds for less than $300. Boyd’s stock, stock trigger adjusted to 3.5lbs, ER Shaw barrel, and SWFA SS scope. Less than $1,000 in it.
I’m a Savage guy and their rifles are top notch. Second to that would be the Ruger American simply because I haven’t used many other newer rifles. But I have used that and it’s a solid gun imo.

Originally posted by Terry View PostI hear a lot of talk about the high end rifles, however a Savage 25.06 I bought more than 10 years ago is one of the most accurate rifles I have ever shot. It was about $300. I believe most mainline rifles out of the box outshoot the shooter. Scopes, noe that’s a different matter.
11 years ago I bought a savage Model 110 in .270 from a mechanic who worked for sunbelt in their parking lot. It came with a hard case, buck Omni hunter skinner, simmons scope, and a box of Remington core lokt for $200. It was the most accurate rifle I had have ever owned until I bought my APR.
