Chainsaw....a little advice....
243 Win, 6.5 Creedmor or 308 Win offer the best road to easy accuracy.
You want a fairly heavy rifle with a stock matched to your type of shooting. There are several Savage 10 & 12 models that do this well.
You want good aftermarket support.....meaning, can you buy an upgrade trigger or barrel easily? Savage yep.
You want a good steel scope mount or maybe aluminum....TPS, Ken Ferrel, EGW, etc
You want a good scope. I would look at Vortex, Burris and Leupold at around $1000. Nightforce, US Optics and Vortex Razor above that at $2000-$2500. $500-$1000 is a world of heavy compromises....only you can decide what compromises are ok. At the end of the day, you can spend $200-$3000 and hit your target in most lighting. At $1000, I really like the XTR II.
You want a muzzle brake or can at some point.
