Hi guys,
I was just looking at the Weatherby vanguard synthetic package deal in 30-06 or .308. Comes with a Banner 3-9x40 bushnell scope, sling, and case. I was also looking into the new Marlin XL7 in 30-06 or the Remington 700 sps base model, synthetic, blued and in 30-06.
Just wondering what some of you guys think is the better rifle? Not to fond of the the weight of the Vanguard at 7.5lbs, the Marlin is 6.5lbs and the rimington is 7 1/4lbs. I'm not overly fussed about weight as I'll be only really using it for hunting blacktails, but I don't really want to be lugging around a tank in the bush.
No matter what rifle I go with I'll be putting on a Luepold VX-I 3-9x40 or Bushnell 3200 3-9x40.
Any info on these rifles would be greatly appreciated!
Thanx everyone
