I'm looking at getting a left hand 6.5 Creedmoor rifle but haven't found many in stock options. Right now it looks like there are a few savage models, Ruger FTW Hawkeye, and the Tikka Lite.
My budget is $1,500 for the rifle, so I have also looked at Christensen and Montana Rifle Co. So far I prefer the Christensen but haven't been able to find either of the rifles in stock.
It will mainly be used for whitetails, predators, and some range time. Most of my hunting is done out of a blind, so weight isn't a concern.
As of now I'm leaning towards the Tikka or Savage Storm. I like the Tikka because from what I've heard it's a great out of the box shooter. I like the Savage Storm because it's also a good shooter and seems to have more aftermarket parts. After I shoot out the original barrel I plan to re-barrel with a varmint barrel.
I tried posting earlier, but it looks like for some reason it didn't go through. I apologize if I end up posting twice.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Best,
Pabsy
