Accubonds and partitions for hunting, and speers or Sierras for plinking. Great rifle.A bit on the hefty side weight wise ( with walnut), but this is not necessarily a bad thing, as it tones down the recoil a bit.One more thing regarding the Vanguard, I picked one up in .223 for `yotes, and it has the *****tiest factory trigger I`ve tried yet.
x2 on the CZ. At least look at one one before you decide.

I own one and I plan to pass it down to a younger hunter when I can no longer bend my index finger. The trigger is excellent and the action is solid. It is a bit heavier but worth the extra weight in gold. My father in law just bougt one in .308 and loves it.
