Good morning...long time lurker but this is my first post here.
Looking to put together a semi-budget friendly bolt gun for hunting. Primarily will be used for whitetail and hogs in Texas but we also have a Montana black bear hunt planned for June 2021 and hopefully lots of western big game hunting in the future as well. I am mainly an AR15 guy but would really like a nice "do all" rifle.
*Option 1*-My plan is the get a Bergara Ridge 24" 300 win mag barreled action and drop it in a Greyboe Phoenix stock. My question for all you mountain hunters is if that's a good stock option or I am better off with something like a Manners?
*Option 2*-Tikka T3X Superlite in 300 wm and a Mesa Precision stock
Optics are also up for discussion...prefer something in the 3-15 or 4-16 range (Trijicon, Nightforce SHV, Zeiss V4??)
Not that it matters much but I also have a Dead Air Sandman-S suppressor.
Any and all input is greatly appreciated! Thanks
