From $400-1000 you have many options. All are good. Depends on if you want to customize in the future, weight of rifle, many things to consider.

The Ruger American Rifle is a good budget rifle. May not be a tack driver like the others mentioned but I'm sure it'll take down a deer.

Rem 700 /thread

For a budget rifle, you can't beat the mossberg 100 atr. For 3 bills you can't beat it, now its not a m70 or a xbolt, but its a solid rifle.

What's your price range? I've been looking long and hard.
Rem 700
Tikka
Browning abolt and xbolt
Are a few of the ones I'm leaning to.

Just traded one of these off in .308 SS Stalker and to be honest I've missed it ever since. But the guy made me a deal I couldn't pass up. I will definitely own another one day

Look at a model 70 you won't be disappointed.

I've been looking at the 270. Browning X Bolt. I know it's pricey but I've been a browning man ever since I was born.
How are the X Bolts on weights compared to other rifles in its class?

Seem lighter and that recoil pad they put on their is tits. Literally I think its made of tits. It feels that dang good. I could shoot that .308 of mine all day long. Heck one of my buddies son uses one and the kid is 9

Everyone keeps telling me this. How are they on weight?
Posted on 3/10/13 at 10:17 pm to eyepooted

Not bad. Like KR said they have a featherlight version.

Got a used Ruger M77 .270. Love it. I shoot left handed so the tang safety helps.
ETA. I never payed attention to weight and balance and that stuff till I bought a Howa 1500. I never could get comfortable shooting that damn thing. Traded it to a guy who was glad to get it but i could not hit for shite with it. I just never felt balanced.
