Happy to see the honorable mention on the Cascade. I scored on a Cascade XT 6.5 CM for my 12 year old son to use for his first deer rifle this year. Got it for a little over $530. Very happy with it. Great groups and having the ability to shorten the stock to 13" is really nice for kids or small stature shooters.
I agree with the list for the most part. If someone could stretch the budget a bit the CVA is worth it, or for a bit more the tikka. It is a shame the Thompson Center Compass is gone, it was a shooter. Love the Ruger.
I have the Savage Axis in 223 and it is a tack driver. I changed the trigger spring too lighten it up but that is all it needed. And I have the Ruger American in 243. I changed the stock too a Pro Mag and what a difference from the factory junk.
Great advice on finding a gun's favorite ammo. Some will shoot most anything. Many will not. Once I was shooting with a buddy. We both had the very same rifle. After awhile it was very obvious that each preferred a different ammo! We even swapped rifles - no difference! I think new owners are often disillusioned because they do not bother to find their new rifle's favorite. You spend so much time, money & effort making these "really fun" & informative videos for us - thank you Adam. We love you Brother.👍
I just got a new Savage Axis chambered in 350 Legend, to my knowledge they're the only one that make them in a left hand version. You can get the Ruger American in a lefty but I don't rhink they make them in that cartridge.
Great list of rifles. Love that go wild ruger. Those CVA Cascades and their Bergara brothers are sweet too. So many choices. Thanks for reviewing them to make the decision easier.
I know this video is about budget rifles, but if a guy can swing another $2-300 before glass on a rifle you can get an even better rifle that not only shoots well but has a more quality feeling with better machining, smoother bolt, a better stock, and usually a little better trigger. With rifles like the Tikka T3X lite, Bergara B-14 hunter, and Howa 1500’s.
Nice video, not something I remember WTW has done before. Its always interesting to see what different people prefer. Savage and Ruger are pretty common here in Australia and the savage can be had very very cheap, great knock about rifle.
Hey Ausia glad you love some of the same rifles that I do, just picked up a Savage 110 Tactical in 6.5 creedmore haven’t been able to shoot it yet. And Rutgers have been one of my fav pieces since I was 16 and that’s a long time ago.
Very good list. Can agree from personal experience on the Howa 1500 rifle. Both of mine does really well, 0,56” and 0,44” groups. Anything CZ will be very durable and accurate.
My Howa didn't shoot at all the first 80 shots - I'm talking 2-4" at 100yds. Got a suppressor and it immediately shrunk down to 1". Eventually got habdloads with 165gr Nosler AccuBonds. Never tested seating depth/COAL, Just guessed 2.810" and tried powder charges in .5gr increments... every 3 shot group was sub 0.5" and when I did test shots once I got them loaded it shot a .175" 3 shot and a .45" 9 shot group... needless to say, I absolutely love this thing. Have 700 shots through it now and have no complaints except that the bolt knob keeps turning loose because I don't have lock tite lol
Watched you video on the Axis and, since they are one of the few manufacturers still operating in Canada, opted for the Axis II in .270. Great deal and great shooter.
Whootee really needs to get himself a stainless t3x. The rest of my budget rifles have gone down the road. The basically custom quality action, trigger, accuracy, and ability to easily modify makes it all worth it.
Im a firm believer in no longer needing to spend 1500 bones on a rifle. My last savage was an axis in 270 win and it was rediculiously accurate. The only one on your list I may be hesitant to buy would be the mossberg. I'd soo er have the CVA ... but hey that's just me.
Got my first cz600 in 6.5 Creed for 6 hundo. Insanely accurate with insane features. Now, with a 100 doll-hair rebate and clearance, I have a CZ600 in 30-06 coming in for about 350 total. Crazy deal. You get a pseudo CRF that you can top load, melonite/nitride sorta finish, 3 pos safety, locking magazine, integral rail, aluminum receiver, 60 degree throw, semi heavy threaded barrel. Awesome awesome awesome. They need to come out with a light profile barrel and then I'll take it into the mountains too!
I appreciate all your review. My Savage Axis with Busnell 3x9 is correct and i change for wood by Boydstock, my rifle is awesome and 1/2 inch group at 100 yards with Barnes Vortex 168 grains
I had an older Savage m10 in .243 that would practically shoot one hole groups. I got it at Wally World about 20 years ago on clearance for $200. I'm not sure if it was a good choice, but I sold it so I could buy a Weatherby Vanguard Series 2 compact rifle in 7mm-08. I've only been able to use it one deer season, but it killed the deer dead right where it stood, but so did the 243. I wish I could have both, but my budget wouldn't allow it.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us on this topic. All the top 6 can be great rifles and you have proven that. I know some can be lemons 🍋 see BackfireTV’s issue with 2 Mossberg Patriot and your first Ruger GW in 7 PRC, but most of the time they’re shooters. The only two on this list that I haven’t at least handled at Cabela’s etc are the Howa 1500 and CZ Alpha 600. My youngest brother bought a couple Savage Axis (243 and 6.5) for his kids and they are shooters too.
One of my favourite videos that you have done. Great format with the description and then the range portion. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Keep up the great work.
this summer worked up handloads at max levels for ruger ranch 300 bo bolt gun and cva stainless single shot in 350 legend. both with scopes in the $150 or less range and in 1-6x and 2-7x respectively. both rigs ended up shooting two shot one hole groups at 50 yds in the backyard. took some work and experimentation at the loading bench, but not a single factory round shot in them....which was my goal in the first place. who knows what they would have done on a calm day at 100 with at least a $150 class 3-9x optic on a heavy bench instead of a rest in the driveway on a $35 menards folding plastic table???? thanks wtw for your input and encouragement during the process!!!! in about a month, single shot deer season for my son. for the record, ruger single shot sled only functions with the ar pattern magazine ranch guns, not the older rotary mag ranch models....that was a $250 mistake. ouch!
The only one on your list that I would not buy is the Mossberg Patriot I like the gun I have in 375 Ruger but would NEVER buy another one. It shoots patterns instead of groups I called Mossberg and their response was we don't give any accuracy guarantee on our rifles. So I will never ever use this rifle for hunting. Glad you got a good one.
Another awesome video. My favorite budget rifle is the Ruger American Predator. IM STILL HOPING YOU WILL DO A 350 LEGEND VS 300BLACKOUT COMPARISON LIKE IVE BEEN ASKING FOR FOR 3 YEARS NOW 😆
Good list... good list. I'd personally drop the Howa and Axis and slip in the Cascade and the Bergara but as you mention, they are a pinch higher priced. I'd put the Bergaras in the top spot personally, esp if you don't need something super light weight. LOVE my CZ 600A. Mine is in 6 Creed. I bought it from a former benchrest competitor and still extremely picky when he switched to Dasher. The CZ shoots the ELD Match super well but the guy I bought it from had worked up a load with a slightly lower velocity, about 80 fps less than the stock Hornady and I bought his remaining supply. Literally first time out, out of eight 3-shot groups, three groups had three shots touching including the very first group. Great first impression. Still in the honeymoon phase but it's only for paper and coyotes so far.
i had a ruger 'merican in 6.5G. barrel was jank ass barrel but still shot good. sent back to ruger, they replaced the barrel. Honestly best service ever. i dont know how the new one shoots yet though...
Sorry that you got a dud brother, but happy that the good people at Ruger hooked you up like a catfish! I have the exact same rifle and so far, it's been awesome. Mine even handles Wolf steel cased 100 grainers well. Make sure to let us know how the new barrel performs... 🤓
Great budget choices. Maybe you can do a video on great budget ammo selections for Deer hunters. I see 308 and 350 legend plinking ammo for cheap and that makes for a good hunter. The 30-30 hunting ammo is sometimes as cheap as 308 plinking ammo at a buck a pop. What other calibers are a good choice these days?
Hi Who_Tee_Who, greatly appreciate ALL your contents. I would like to ask if you could when you break down the Nomenclature of your BullotSlingers if you can: 1) is it Control Round Feed or Push Feed. 2) a 2 step or 3 step safety feature 3) trigger pull pound pressure 4) if it's a 2 lug, 3 lug, or 4 lug...and which is best for hunting? Heck Hermano, if this gives you any new ideas for new content have add it. Will be looking forward to seeing it. Thanks.
Great list I shoot Howa Heavy barrels 308 223 Great with premium they are great, with hand load even better. Great budget rifle. Supressed. Awesome reviews
Another great video, Hootle-heimer! I have had rifles from every maker on your list, except for the Howa and the CVA. What a blessing that we are able to get tack-driving bullet-launchers at working man prices. 🤗 MAGA Dammit! 😎
It’s so funny how often I hear your comments and I think “Exactly!” I had a CVA Scout and thought it was the best trigger ever. Thought about getting a Cascade instead of the Savage Impulse, but the straight pull was too hard to resist. And now, as you’ve said, the CVAs are getting a leeeeetle bit more expensive. (Still, if I can find a used one….💸)
Awesome review when are you gonna see a best budget zoomie for your rifle video? I’m interested in some optic choices I see you use a lot of different ones
Honestly thought the cascade was gonna be #2 lol but I know that's a stretch for "budget" lol but for $150-$200 more that a Ruger American worth a very serious look great list wtw!!
cz 600 is nice as it is a great deal for a CRF rifle which isn't all that common nowadays. howa 1500 would be my choice for a modern push feed. Weatherby puts these actions in a nice stock and calls it the vanguard. if you are willing to go the surplus route, can't beat a swede m96, or for a bit more, a swede m38, both in 6.5x55 Swedish. check out 9 hole reviews for accuracy proof with irons.
Maybe for benchrest target shooting; however, lugging a heavy-barreled rifle around is not as enjoyable as most believe. It also requires a supported position for the majority of hunters, especially when waiting for game to move for the correct shot.
Is this true because I’ve heard the Mossberg patriot has fairly bad grouping. I don’t know if it’s just a wooden stock version of it but it would be greatly appreciated if you can do a deeper review on the Woodstock version of the Mossberg patriot as I’ve heard mixed reviews, some saying that it’s grouping is that a 4 inches to three and some saying it’s 1 to 2 inches so I would like more information because I’m in the market for a a good deer hunting rifle that is in the price range of 500$
Who else has issues with the axis in 308 for light primer strikes, hang fires? Even after I got an updated pin spring it seems like the only centerfire I own that fails to fire maybe 2 out 20 rounds
Don’t forget maybe some break in period too I still haven’t shot my savage straight pull 300 win mag rifle yet .. just because I don’t have any ranges that’s 100-400 yards
I have a ruger american go wild and a cva cascade XT. I paid 600$ for both and im liking the cva more. Only downside is really no aftermarket parts, thats where the ruger is awesome.
Hello sir. Love your channel btw, always watch your new videos, always very informative. Had a question if you have time. I’ve got my next rifle narrowed down to either a CVA Cascade .308 Win SB with the 18-inch barrel or the CZ 600 Alpha .308 Win with the 20-inch barrel. Cost is similar. I was curious what you’d recommend? Looking for accuracy more than anything else. I shoot mainly 500 yards or closer. I appreciate your time sir.
Honestly you'd be good with either. Probably more of a personal preference. I have had several of each and not had a bad one. You may be able to find the cz cheaper tho
Even though I watched this video only 12 days ago, I liked it so much that I am getting a second-helping! You are spot on with every selection and the awesome value in every bullet-launcher. I must make a slight adjustment to the ranking. We love the Ruger products in our house, and have many examples. That said, the fact that you literally stole that Savage gets my blood boiling! When you stated the sales price, I was surprised. I have the same gun, except mine has a Flat Desert Earth stock (I say desert because it's anything but Dark). Somehow, you snagged that thang for Under $300- and you got a snazzy scope and rangs to boot? Whiskey-Tango-Foxtrot! I know that the price was a One-off dealio, but I am Jealous at how Blessed you are! Stop Showing Off Hoot! Just kiddin'- you keep 'em coming...

I agree with the list for the most part. If someone could stretch the budget a bit the CVA is worth it, or for a bit more the tikka. It is a shame the Thompson Center Compass is gone, it was a shooter. Love the Ruger.
Here in South Africa/Namibia, a Tikka is nearly $1800 :( Howas can go as low as $400 lol
@@marcmoore4115 I don’t think I could justify paying that much more money for the tikka. Howa is a great choice.
There’s a TC Compass for sale near me with a scope for $500 used in 300 WM I thought about getting it but don’t know much about them.
@@DavidBanks02 It would depend on the scope to me. The trigger and stock are not as good as on a CVA or Howa, but with a decent scope it is not bad.
I have the Savage Axis in 223 and it is a tack driver. I changed the trigger spring too lighten it up but that is all it needed. And I have the Ruger American in 243. I changed the stock too a Pro Mag and what a difference from the factory junk.
I’m glad that you emphasized the need to test different ammo. Your exactly right saying that you have to find the ammo that each gun likes.
👍👍
I had a savage arms .300 win mag it would not zero with 180 grains so I got 150 After that had em hitting within an inch at a hundy.
I bought a ruger american ranch 450 after ur video i love it groups just under a inch took 2 deer with it so far
Awesome!

I chose the go wild in 308 for alot of upgrades over the ranch & predator, cerakote , aics magazine=3-5-10rd , 22inch barrel.
Great choices, WTW. I went with a Tikka T3x-lite. Love it. Wanted the CVA Cascade but couldn't find one in 6.5 cm. Don't regret it, at all.
Thanks for the hard work in putting together this outstanding piece on top 5 deer getters with an honorable mention, too cool.
Thanks for watching
Great video Who_Tee_Who. I appreciate all you do. One hard working dude.
I appreciate you watching
I love to see youare hunting. It do matter how much you can spend .long as it shoots good and you are happy. Keep hunting friend. 😊
I have both the savage axis and the ruger American and they shoot fantastic
I just got a new Savage Axis chambered in 350 Legend, to my knowledge they're the only one that make them in a left hand version. You can get the Ruger American in a lefty but I don't rhink they make them in that cartridge.
Great list of rifles. Love that go wild ruger. Those CVA Cascades and their Bergara brothers are sweet too. So many choices. Thanks for reviewing them to make the decision easier.
Thanks for watching
I thought this was going to be five different Ruger Americans
😆😆😆
It could have very well been he has a lot that shoot really good
1. Ruger American Go Wild, 2. Ruger American Ranch, 3. Ruger American Compact, 4. Ruger American Standard, 5. Ruger American Predator. Lol
hhHAAHHAAh!
Who else guessed number one hah?
😂😂😂😂😂 I thought the same thing
He's gonna say Ruger American 5x lol. 😂
I know this video is about budget rifles, but if a guy can swing another $2-300 before glass on a rifle you can get an even better rifle that not only shoots well but has a more quality feeling with better machining, smoother bolt, a better stock, and usually a little better trigger.

I appreciate all the time that you put in your videos and all the good information that you have on ammo and guns 👍

Awesome video, especially for the family guys looking for great budget friendly deer getters !! Their Home work is pretty much done !! 👏👏
Thank you WTW for all you do. it's nice to have a resource for the everyday guy. A++
Appreciate you watching!
Nice video, not something I remember WTW has done before. Its always interesting to see what different people prefer. Savage and Ruger are pretty common here in Australia and the savage can be had very very cheap, great knock about rifle.
Hey Ausia glad you love some of the same rifles that I do, just picked up a Savage 110 Tactical in 6.5 creedmore
haven’t been able to shoot it yet. And Rutgers have been one of my fav pieces since I was 16 and that’s a long time ago.
Very good list. Can agree from personal experience on the Howa 1500 rifle. Both of mine does really well, 0,56” and 0,44” groups.
Anything CZ will be very durable and accurate.
Awesome
My Howa didn't shoot at all the first 80 shots - I'm talking 2-4" at 100yds. Got a suppressor and it immediately shrunk down to 1". Eventually got habdloads with 165gr Nosler AccuBonds. Never tested seating depth/COAL, Just guessed 2.810" and tried powder charges in .5gr increments... every 3 shot group was sub 0.5" and when I did test shots once I got them loaded it shot a .175" 3 shot and a .45" 9 shot group... needless to say, I absolutely love this thing. Have 700 shots through it now and have no complaints except that the bolt knob keeps turning loose because I don't have lock tite lol
CVA kicks ass. I have one 308 short barrel. Just got scout pistol in 300 blackout. Im a big fan of Bergara. CVA is a budget friendly Bergara.
Got a Ruger American hunter. Magpul green stock, heavy, short, threaded barrel. 6.5 Creedmoor. Love it.
Watched you video on the Axis and, since they are one of the few manufacturers still operating in Canada, opted for the Axis II in .270. Great deal and great shooter.
Jeff, I also have an Axis in .270 it is a damn good Rifle with very small groups and low recoil.
the plain tikka t3x is a great rifle
might be a little more expensive but the trigger and action make it worth it
Yup. Didn't make the budget friendly list
Whootee really needs to get himself a stainless t3x. The rest of my budget rifles have gone down the road. The basically custom quality action, trigger, accuracy, and ability to easily modify makes it all worth it.
@@jbradley500sad but the Tikka isn’t a budget rifle anymore but got to love them Tikka’s
@@edwardabrams4972 You can pick up a T3X lite for the same price as a Ruger American go wild that made the list…
I have tikka t3x x2 I think the cz 600 alpha which was got at a bargain price has a better trigger

It shoots patterns instead of groups I called Mossberg and their response was we don't give any accuracy guarantee on our rifles. So I will never ever use this rifle for hunting. Glad you got a good one.
Bro. This video is mad helpful. Calibers, groupings, shootings prices included! Man really nice video dude kudos.
That’s a good collection of Deer Rifles. Thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching!
I have the Ruger Predator, .243. As long as you keep the trigger nut adjusted, (the nut behind the trigger😁) that little rifle is a tack driver.

I had a feeling the cascade would come up in this video lol totally understand the price point being why it was not included in the top 5 though
Just picked up the Ruger 450 for deer season, it’s loud and it kicks hard. Had some cloverleaf groups with it.
Sweeeeet
Very well put to video. The ending would make a good new epilogue ( I think that's the right word ) keep being awesome

Honorable mention though hahahahaa nice!!
Still get heartbroken seeing that 3rd round "flier" on my 22-250 reloads I sent... I need to tighten up my quality control 😆 🤣
That Boyd's Shady Camo is chef's kiss material.
I own two cascades, and a heavily modified Ruger American predator- all three are amazing. but bang for buck, cascade is where its at IMO.
Love em
cz 600 is nice as it is a great deal for a CRF rifle which isn't all that common nowadays. howa 1500 would be my choice for a modern push feed. Weatherby puts these actions in a nice stock and calls it the vanguard. if you are willing to go the surplus route, can't beat a swede m96, or for a bit more, a swede m38, both in 6.5x55 Swedish. check out 9 hole reviews for accuracy proof with irons.
Love the list!!! I need a new bolt action. Much appreciated.
Wasnt expecting the cz600
Have you thought about a top 5 budget friendly Deer Rifle Optics video? Would definitely be interested
I've thought about it
CVA are a little more expensive because of the Bergara barrel. Cold hammer forged.
👍👍
The CZ is a great rifle 😁😁😁😁👍😁👍😁
Thanks for all you do
Thanks for watching
Love my Ruger American 450 bushmaster. Keep in mind the scopes on some these rifle’s cost more then the rifle does.
Maybe a good review of the scopes you use and how well they work...
Maybe for benchrest target shooting; however, lugging a heavy-barreled rifle around is not as enjoyable as most believe. It also requires a supported position for the majority of hunters, especially when waiting for game to move for the correct shot.
Mossberg patriot, Ruger American, savage axis, cva cascade, cva scout and mauser M18.
Bad math that was 6
Great shootin. I knew Ruger would be #1.
Suitable for price and quality, very worthy of use, Ruge brand.
My wife has a cheap Remington 783 in 7mm-08. That thing shoots great!
Is this true because I’ve heard the Mossberg patriot has fairly bad grouping. I don’t know if it’s just a wooden stock version of it but it would be greatly appreciated if you can do a deeper review on the Woodstock version of the Mossberg patriot as I’ve heard mixed reviews, some saying that it’s grouping is that a 4 inches to three and some saying it’s 1 to 2 inches so I would like more information because I’m in the market for a a good deer hunting rifle that is in the price range of 500$
The 2 mossbergs I have had did good. I can only speak from my experience
Ok thanks
My Patriot in 270 walnut stock shoots great. Love it!!
I was literally thinking to myself, I wonder why he didn’t put the CVA cascade on the list lol. I got mine because i saw your videos on them
Love the cascade
Excellent rifles
Excellent video!
Thank you!!
Thanks for watching
Who else has issues with the axis in 308 for light primer strikes, hang fires? Even after I got an updated pin spring it seems like the only centerfire I own that fails to fire maybe 2 out 20 rounds
Don’t forget maybe some break in period too
I still haven’t shot my savage straight pull 300 win mag rifle yet .. just because I don’t have any ranges that’s 100-400 yards
Even though not made anymore T/C Compass 2 is a great rifle!
I agree
I have a ruger american go wild and a cva cascade XT. I paid 600$ for both and im liking the cva more. Only downside is really no aftermarket parts, thats where the ruger is awesome.
Is that the savage axis strata
Hello sir. Love your channel btw, always watch your new videos, always very informative. Had a question if you have time. I’ve got my next rifle narrowed down to either a CVA Cascade .308 Win SB with the 18-inch barrel or the CZ 600 Alpha .308 Win with the 20-inch barrel. Cost is similar. I was curious what you’d recommend? Looking for accuracy more than anything else. I shoot mainly 500 yards or closer. I appreciate your time sir.
Honestly you'd be good with either. Probably more of a personal preference. I have had several of each and not had a bad one. You may be able to find the cz cheaper tho
@@WHOTEEWHO I appreciate the info.
Glad u mentioned the cva wouldnt of been a great video without it
👍👍
What caliber Axis was shot in the video? The one you had in hand was .300 AAC but didn’t say what caliber was shot for grouping
Got a Savage Axis in 243 never been deer hunting in my lifetime, but I wanted a deer rifle, works great can hit a quarter at 50 yards
You talked so highly of the ruger american that I got one.
Great comparison video man.
Thanks for watching!
Savage 110 sr-fcp in .308!
Thanks Adam!
Have you tested a new production M700? I am curious to see how they perform.
I have not
Was expecting the cvs cascade to be #2 viewers knew who #1 was gonna be.
Even though I watched this video only 12 days ago, I liked it so much that I am getting a second-helping! You are spot on with every selection and the awesome value in every bullet-launcher. I must make a slight adjustment to the ranking. We love the Ruger products in our house, and have many examples. That said, the fact that you literally stole that Savage gets my blood boiling! When you stated the sales price, I was surprised. I have the same gun, except mine has a Flat Desert Earth stock (I say desert because it's anything but Dark). Somehow, you snagged that thang for Under $300- and you got a snazzy scope and rangs to boot? Whiskey-Tango-Foxtrot! I know that the price was a One-off dealio, but I am Jealous at how Blessed you are! Stop Showing Off Hoot! Just kiddin'- you keep 'em coming...
😆😆😆 that was a black Friday deal
