Looking for a .308 bolt rifle that is reasonably accurate and takes AICS or Pmags.

I am just starting to reload and figure it will be be easier to work up loads in a bolt gun for .308 compared to PSA-10s.
.
I would like to keep under a grand but have some room.

The CVA  Cascades, Ruger American and Weatherby Camillia have caught my eye but fall short because of their mags.

So i guess my ideal would be a wood stock, accurate rifle that takes Pmags or AICS.

I have Gen 1 Ruger Predator in Grendel that I like and can pick up the .308 version for under six hundred.

Another vote for the Begara. Didn't have one yet, but it's on the short list.

Another vote for a HMR.

My 308 has been excellent.

Ruger American Predator in the Magpul stock will do you just fine. My 6.5 is reliably sub-MoA.

Howa 1500.  Order a barreled action ($450-500) plus an MDT field stock chassis ($300) from Brownells.  Add a detachable magazine drop-in kit and a scope rail.

i bought a used Howa 1500 locally and a used XLR chassis from the EE here, in for a total of $850. Added a one-piece rail and a relatively cheap Vortex, still into the entire package for @$1300 (not including the Atlas).




For the money, I'm completely happy with the results...
