.223 rifle suggestions

[TheRustler]

Hey guys. Im new the site. Always been a bow guy but looking to get my first rifle. I shot a .223 Savage yesterday and absolutely loved it. Which one would yall recommend, savage or Rem 700?

My favorite is actually the Ruger American Predator.

I like Remington rifles (older, 1990's) but Savage are fine.

Ruger American Ranch in 5.56

If you go with a Mossberg MVP, you can fire both .223 and 5.56, and it takes AR mags, but is still a bolt action rifle. Also already has scope rail.

Very nice. Thanks for the input. Is there a big price difference in them?

Ruger Predator is 350-400
Savage about 300-350
Mossberg MVP is about 550-600
Ruger Ranch about 750-850
Regular Remington 700 about 375-450

If you like a nice Remington, check out the VTR...

I was eyeballing one of these the other day.
