Have a lot of good options in that price range. Don't overlook the M1A or even a 6.5 creedmoor in an ar-platform. the 6.5 is a bad mofo.

Best semi auto hunting rifle out there IMO. Got mine 15 years ago never had a jam or misfire.

pretty much the same as the fnar besides the camo. i picked up a fnar with the 20'' barrel a few months ago for 1170. browning wants 1700? for 200 bucks you could camo dip it any color you want. only difference is the fn came with a 20 round clip. it really is a good accurate shooting rifle and mine loves the 150 308 coreloks. with the 20'' heavy barrel its heavier than most 308 ar platforms but its not that bad.

That is the msrp price....I heard from a local dealer they will sell for around 1,300. They will offer different round clips.
