I've shot some cheaper precision bolt-action rifles and found a few awesome options under $1,000. The Ruger American Predator, used Tikka T3x Lite, Savage 110 Precision, and Howa 1500 (with an upgraded stock) give you the best value.
They need nice barrels and optics to be great but with a few upgrades, they perform like expensive rifles for hunting and target shooting, what budget bolt-action have you had the best results with?
