Bren 2 or x95 for semi auto

Tikka T3x or any of the CZ 600 series rifles for bolt action

Damn that Bren 2 hella expensive. I love how the Siberian looks the best but apparently it's riddled with tons of issues already, and same with the WK. And I don't really like bullpups.

I feel like the only way to go is the Bren but it's going to cost an arm and a leg.
