The Browning was ruled out for the offset shaped grip

The howa for the weight and stock thickness

Now we are down to 2 the Remington and the tikka.

Eyes closed to shooting position and open eye once there. Did this a half dozen times on each my eye was slightly left of the centre each time but worse on the Remington. The Remington was also slightly shorter.

So we arrived at the Tikka.

After looking through a few scopes at $750-$950 rang the luepold V3 just had a very clear colour sharpness to it.

That there is the process of how I chose my 1st rifle. Thanks for everyone's opinion knowledge and advice

Sounds like you ended up with a quality setup in a good caliber. Good luck with the hunting
