New rifle

Hi, I am going to buy a new rifle (not custom) for target shooting. Is only for fun, I don't have too many pretensions, but I would like to buy the best option with my budget. ¿Could you order the following options from the best rifle (or the most accurate) to the worst? That would help me to choose one of them because I have heard good opinions, but I have only shot two of them.

1)Tikka T3x lite
2)Tikka T3x varmint
3)Tikka CTR
4)Sauer 100 Classic XT
5)Bergara B14
6)Bergara B14 HMR
7)Remington 700 SPS varmint
8)Remington 700 varmint SF

Thank you
Add this to your list, the Remington 5R Gen 2. Not only is it one of the coolest models they've ever come out with it's among the most accurate out of the box rifles you will ever pick up.

I bought one of these along with the Ruger M77 Hawkeye FTW both in .260 Remington two years ago just to compare the two and was incredibly well pleased.

Both shot sub MOA with several different factory loads with a slight edge to the Remington and both got down to .5 MOA or better with several different handloads as well.

The biggest difference in the two is weight, the Ruger is a good bit lighter.
 
That's a lot of endorsements for the milspec 5r! Usually these threads have 10 guys saying 20 different things lol
 
Another vote for the 5R. I have one in .308 that will shoot a ragged one hole 5 shot group. It is by far the most accurate "out of the box" rifle that I've ever owned. The next would be the Savage 10/110 Max Predator in 6.5 Crredmoor. Good luck in your decision.
