I'm glad I didnt post as the first response when I originally saw this thread - would have revealed my "amateur" level of win mag knowledge. I have a Savage 110, .300 of course, with accu-trigger, Nikon scope - I'm very pleased, and it suits my needs. I doubt I will ever take a shot over 400 or so yards.

Savage makes some very good low cost rifles.

Being Les Baer I'm sure they are well built, but I've never shot that particular gun. Personally for that kind of money I'd rather have a LMT quick change AR. A semi is nice (I had an AR10), but they just never will be as reliable as a bolt action. As a side note, when they market them as "sniper" they mean more of a LEO sniper role rather than a military sniper. I shot mine well to about 700 yards, but beyond that it was spotty.
