you just cant go wrong with a 700 for the price.

Browning A-Bolt (rifle itself will be right at $1000)
Weatherby Vangaurd (about $500, can get a combo with a Bushnell Scope, case, and strap for about $700)
Tikka T3 Lite (about $600)
ETA: Remington 700 is a great gun also.
What caliber are you looking into?

The 700 BDL is a classic hunting rifle if thats the look you are going for.

I have a 30-06 now but I'm giving it back to my dad. I'm not sure if I should change.

imo: 30-06 is the best all around caliber.

Marlin 30-30 is what I use....Cowboy Bullet slinger!! Pretty inexpensive.
$400 without scope.

i lean towards the 30-06 myself. .270, .308 and even .243 is usually all we need if hunting the southeast. plus ammo is cheaper and easier to find than some of those odd rounds.

What is the longest shot you can make on your place? And are u going to be there for a while? U shouldn't choose your gun bc of popularity... Although some of the suggestions are good, it may not be ideal for you

I have this in 30-06 and love it.

A hell of a lot of gun for price. Retails $999 but one can be had for less than $900...
Weatherby Vanguard Sub-MOA

Tikka make a damn fine gun for good price. Remington 700 or model 7 and Browning A-bolt. Any of these chambered in 30-06 or 270, I would avoid a 308 unless ur sure your shots will be within 200 yards.
