New rifle suggestions

I am in that frame of mind right now I just don't know what I want. I love wooden stocks and my buddy has a M77 in 25-06 that is extremely accurate. His brother has a Bergara that shoots amazingly accurate. That why I pondered the wooden stock but the precision stock the B-14 HMR has is cool. As well as the Tikka T3X Ace Game model. I am just taking some time to make sure I am getting something I won't regret buying down the road. I am leaning toward the Bergara for price and quality. The wooden stock was just a fleeting thought . Whatever I get I want accuracy and versatility. I don't want to rush out and buy right away and then see something I missed the first go around. Ya dig my friend?

I'm going to call bergara on Monday and inquire about a gun made to order. I'd like to get the b14 HMR model with the 22 inch barrel instead of a 24 inch barrel and have the barrel fluted. It would cut down on the weight a little and I would have a little more maneuverability with the shorter Barrel and I wouldn't lose that much velocity. But I'm sure that'll probably cost a million dollars to do. They do have a custom shop but I'm just wondering how much they would charge to do something like that.
If said said 25/06 is a tang safety model you better buy it before someone else does.
 
Tikka T3X Laminate in 270 Win. As long as the criteria are all out the window, that’s my suggestion. Under $1050 through Grabagun. 6.5 Creedmoor is cheaper for the same model there. 🤷‍♂️
 
That 6.5 will do more than you will ever need. If I hadn't already owned a 1/4 bore since before that cartridge was ever even thought of, I'd own one. I tried to stop buying new systems by the time I turned 50. Figured I wouldn't get my money's worth after that. The next one after that is a 308. Just because it's so available
