Of the five choices I've never fired a Tikka or a Howa so I have no opinion on them.  Between the other three I don't care for anything that has a plastic(Kevlar/fiberglass graphite Pillar Plus AccuBlock™) stock will never find it's way into a safe of mine.  So that leaves the Winchester Stealth out.  Remington is out until they get their customer service department working again.  That left Ruger M77 MKII the only choice.  Now if you would have said a Winchester Coyote then that's the one I would have voted for.  Lawdog

I picked Tikka, but I would also say that the Remington 700 VS is either a close second, or perhaps a tie.

I voted for the Ruger M77 MkII V/T because I've had 3 and all were excellent shooters and I am a bona fide "Ruger-lover". But given the choice and accuracy being the only virtue, I would have selected the Savage 112 BVSS ... oh, silly me, the Savage isn't even listed????
