I have the Savage/Fox BSE, which is, arguably, the nicer cousin of the Stevens 311. While stout, it is neither bomb-proof, nor well-balanced, nor svelte and lithe in the hands. All that being said, for a low-budget SxS, either that or the Stevens will probably be your best best.........UNLESS you can manage to find a nice AyA made for Sears from the 50s or 60s, or possibly an Uggie from the 70s forward. - Those can run from $250 upwards to $800
While not exactly HD oriented, they are well made and can be modified without too much trouble
