300 win mag suggestions

Looking to buy a 300 win mag bolt action rifle for hunting and target shooting:
Barrel is 26' or less
Barrel is 'heavy' profile (I have no preference regarding about SS, CL, etc)
Has aftermarket stocks available to free float/ accept detachable magazines
Not interested in Remington or Browning.
Price is not a concern but I want to avoid building it myself (ie buying action, barrel, stock separately etc.)
It will have a can mounted but getting the barrel threaded myself doesn't both me.
Thanks for your time OB.

this removes many choices.
as far as aftermarket support, remington is unmatched (which I'm sure you are aware of)
maybe the savage 10/110 FCP w/ HS stock?

Surgeon makes awesome target guns. I would reccomend the long action scalpal with an IOR Valdada scope if price is not an issue.

Maybe a venom tactical?
They use 700 actions but you won't be getting a crappy finish if that's your concern.

I don't think anyone makes a barrel over 26 feet so you should be okay.

Remtington 700 Sendero SFii final answer.
Whether you are interested in Remington or not this is a hell of a base rifle with a pile of aftermarket options available. I will also add that this rifle with a small amount of modifications will shoot better than you most likely will ever be able to for a fraction of the price.

Seriously, if price isn't an issue then take the action from the rem700 and build your on off that. Most builds will be off the Rem 700 action. However Savage and Tikka also are pretty versatile with builds as well. GAP is very good at what they do. Also check out the BR-10 by Mcree's Precision. I'm getting ready to build a .260 in that model.
