Hi Everyone,
I’m looking for a rifle to hunt in the Hill Country. Whitetail, Axis, and pigs will be the main game animals. The shooting distance is anywhere up to around 200 yds.
My budget is from 1,000 to 2,000. The scope will be a Swarovski 1.7 to 10x Z6.
I hunt out of the blind and Spot and Stalk. I’m looking at .270 win or 2.57 Weatherby Magnum or maybe 7mm.
The following three rifles are my main choices. Please give me your thoughts or experience with these guns. I’m open to other rifles that you may think fit my needs and wants.
Browning X Bolt Hell’s Canyon Speed. I like the rifle features, however not a fan of the camo pattern so I’d get it cerakoted.
Weatherby Mark V Weathermark Bronze. I really like this rifle, however it’s only available in Weatherby calibers.
Remington 700 AWR. This rifle has 5R rifling and I’d replace the trigger. I’ve read that Remington has had QC issues. That kinda worries me.
Please let me know your thoughts if you used any rifles above. I appreciate it.
Best,
