Top 5 Hunting Rifles Under $1000

[@waynebfr8953]

Great review I had a go at the range of a guys M18 in 308 & WOW for price point there should be an M18 in every safe in Australia the bolt was great a good trigger I did think with the hollow type stock you would notice the recoil but I never did I own 3 centerfires Lithgow 223 winchester 270 & sako 3006 Now I’m going to add an M18 For me it was so bloody comfortable to bring up to the shoulder & shoot light to carry cheers

[@banno84]

I've got a tikka t3 hunter in 223 absolutely beautiful gun, shoots amazing, feels amazing, looks amazing as the tikka's do. I Took a risk a while back and bought a mauser m18 30-06. It shoots amazing, is ergonomic and easy to carry and the bolt is light and smooth like a tikka. The mauser m18 are seriously such a good gun for the price. I'm looking to get another 1 in 243. I really do love them for the price point. Glad sum1 else see's that. My mates are still "tikka" all the way. I think that will change in the next while when more get their hands on them.

[@shootingstuffaustralia8977]

Good stuff Mauser is definitely giving the Tikka's a run for their money. For the price and superior quality.

[@nolixss694]

What do you shoot with 223?

[@K0GNITION]

Wow prices in Australia are WAY inflated compared to the US

[@shootingstuffaustralia8977]

Sure are to many hands in the pie.

[@serb8335]

Prices are high need more people to do hunting.

[@michaelcarnasciali1311]

I've just got my M18. Very glad to see it got top spot on this video. Makes me satisfied with my purchase. Mine came with a lockable Mauser hard case, lucky 13 10 round magazine, and ring bases for $1100.

[@colinpenfold5330]

Good video shows a lot of good options and that you don’t need to spend s fortune to get a a quality hunting rifle

[@7071t6]

yep 2nd hand for couple hundred bucks and a cheap scope as well, just get it blueprinted and trued to make sure she is shooting perfectly straight especially if your shooting long ranges above 800 yards for less than 1" moa with custom loads or factory ammo at 800 yards. :)

[@charlesbawden5924]

Got the Howa Stainless in .308. Great rifle. Bro has the Mauser M18 in .308. We were supposed to go and scare some deer this year but COVID stopped us in our tracks. Hopefully we can get out there soon.

[@WarriorPleb]

first time on the channel, the intro gunshot scared tf outta me, didn't realize my volume was 100% 😂 woke the kid up

[@davidjensen2411]

Good list! Would you guys be able to make the equivalent for *Lever Guns* please? 😇 Cheers!

[@shootingstuffaustralia8977]

Most levers are over $1000 here.

[@simonrival1613]

You've raised some good points. But the Weatherby vanguard is very heavy for a hunting rifle. To the point where I don't even really consider it a hunting rifle. But each to their own I guess.

[@lukedontknow9283]

Was it a sporter barrel?

[@simonrival1613]

@@lukedontknow9283 it was a few years ago when I looked at them so I can't recall. When I commented on the weight the guy I spoke to at the gun store said they didn't get any lighter, but it wasn't my local and the service was average so he could have been talking shit.

[@lukedontknow9283]

Simon Rival ok to me they don’t seem any heavier then over rifles.

[@serverlan763]

They are available with various barrel weights

[@worsel2113]

Thumbs up on your vid. For folks in the US, it seems like the prices he mentions are about 50% more than what you can expect to pay. Exchange rate maybe, or Australia taxes.

[@mattrickard3716]

Exchange rate does us no favours over here, taxes and other government imposed bullshit have seen about a 14-20% increase in the price of guns since all of this Covid crap started. No joke. My local shop will be charging that much extra on any new stock they have to order in as of now pretty much.

[@richarddixon7276]

It's even worse here in the UK , some items can be almost twice the price of the USA price - Blame taxes & duty & shipping and smaller markets etc, whatever it still sucks ! Stay Safe .

[@gunman-6646]

Nice video, appreciate you.

[@GIANTSECRETS]

How many rifles of the same calibre and action can we have in Queensland?

[@shootingstuffaustralia8977]

As many as you want up to 30 then you need a vault.

[@scrubnbeach6869]

Cheers once again...back in the early days you and Marty were building a howa 1500 300win mag...did you Eva make any shows with it all finished

[@shootingstuffaustralia8977]

He did finish it. It might show up one day

[@EnkeiTenjin]

If you buy a rem783 over a Howa or a Vanguard, you've got something seriously wrong with ya

[@nolixss694]

Whats your opinion on blued vs stainless barrels mate?

[@shanegibb997]

Good video Aaron , there not bad looking rifles those Mauser's !

[@bearmeat898]

The 783 and 770 are main reasons people won't buy a Remington anymore, and it's on this list?

[@mickhallai]

Great video mate.

[@jaykecraig6708]

For how much damage Remington have done to themselves there 783 range is no frills but 100% a straight shooter hands down will beat there 700 lower end models out the box I don't own a 783 any more I did a cheap 1000yrd build with one it hit steel shot after shot incredible for a firearm that had more burs on it than another firearm ive ever seen the worst blueing I've ever seen it nailed what ever Remington done they hit the nail on the head with accuracy Great video Aaron good to see Aussies doing great content

[@shootingstuffaustralia8977]

Thanks

[@philpayne5313]

No Savage but a Remington 783????

[@1969cmp]

I think you have helped me make up my mind. The M18.

[@Madskills-hw2ox]

Great video Thank you my friend

[@SonnyVator]

Can't believe you put a Remington 783 in this category, I respectfully disagree with your opinion on the 783.

[@fastmonaro05]

Great review mate

[@7071t6]

All great but none of them come with scopes and thats the most important aspect, especially for ELR type shooting or comp shooting and not to mention the blue printing & Truing the action, barrel etc ,even with 2nd hand rifles get it trued up and blue printed so that everything is squared up and perfectly alignment is made, then shooting at 800 yards with factory ammo is so much better ie: scores will be at least 05 MOA compared to 1" MOA at 800 yards?

[@bradleytyrrell4417]

Hay mate you need to check out the browning ab3 very great gun would beat most of these rifles

[@shootingstuffaustralia8977]

I have used an A Bolt and it was cheap and unreliable. Would never recommend one to anyone. Very over priced for the quality.

[@bradleytyrrell4417]

have you tried the new a-bolt 3

[@shootingstuffaustralia8977]

@@bradleytyrrell4417 the a bolt I used was on my last hunting trip and it lasted one trip then the owner traded it in. Just wouldn't feed. I recommend in saving up for an X bolt. It is way better. That's what I have.

[@amyfraser5316]

Ask mauser if the barrel is replaceable they would not answer that question to me.

[@scbane]

Just fyi, the Weatherby Vanguard is actually made by Howa. For half the price of a vanguard, you can get a nearly identical rifle: the Howa 1500

[@sandflea2424]

Good to know, thanks

[@SanteeTV]

Love Ruger. Affordable and their customer service is awesome.

[@richarddixon7276]

All look nice , but I love the idea of a Custom Howa , I know that can be done with any of the others but that is very appealing . Stay Safe & Stay Well .

[@gmoutdoorsandmore7731]

Nice lineup!

[@redraven9566]

Always interested in hunting, how do i get a license for it and do i need to get a gun license? (for NSW)

[@shootingstuffaustralia8977]

First thing is to get a firearms licence

[@bestestusername]

Thanks for not making a 45min video on this

[@tylermihajlovich1187]

No tikka or bergara?

[@shootingstuffaustralia8977]

They are over $1000 in Australia

[@adamelam6385]

Man Aussies get scalped on gun prices.

[@dylantownsend4044]

They let you have hunting rifles in Australia?

[@shootingstuffaustralia8977]

Yes

[@adamelam6385]

The Sauer 100 is basically the same as the 18.

[@markandrew4741]

Remington 783 that's under $350 doesn't make any sense

[@terencemarkiewicz3908]

Tikka t3x light is way better than all these rifles for 700 dollars

[@shootingstuffaustralia8977]

$1400 to $1600 here in Australia tikka is the most over priced gun in Australia. I take you are one of the Tikka fanboy gang. And they aren't very good for the money.

[@brianmilosevic8400]

Remington is junk!
