I'd suggest a Savage LRH in 6.5

Need more info. Hunting elk in timber? Antelope/deer at 800 yards? PRS competitions? What is your intended use. Which 6.5 cartridge?
Christensen is a solid rifle, I've had two. Overpriced for what you get IMO however. I've not owned a Fierce.

isn't the Ruger PRS pretty affordable? I know a guy that has one and shoots ragged one hole groups out of it

Not sure about the Christensen anymore. Leaning more words the fierce just was curious if anyone had one what they thought about it

Might want to put Nosler on the list. They seem like a good value. Plus if you want a fast 6.5 you can get them in 26 nosler.
