Tossed this question out to a buddy of mine who is a tinkerer extraordinaire. He has owned almost everything and knows a thing or two about getting a good deal.
Here's what he had to say:
The deadly Remington 783. Accurate as f. Essentially a savage clone but actually accurate out of the box. Buy a vortex diamondback and he'll be out the door around 750 or 8
I personally shoot a tikka in 270 win. Love it but it's expensive...even used. I would advise spending as much on the optics and solid mounts as possible. I'd recommend buying a used scope to max out the quality that your money will buy. Burris, leupold and vortex have some good options.
Let us know how you make out.
