Valmets are cool.

Just FYI there are a couple dozen semi auto rifles in 308, 30.06 or similar.

Thats... shocking to me. I am going to assume they are priced above $3000?

Yeah. Mine was.

Plenty of European options for semi-auto 308s, 8mm, 7mm etc.

Just because yours was doesn't mean everything. Your giving op the wrong idea.

I was thinking Sauer 303, Merkel SR1, FN49, HK’s etc.

The Browning BARs, Benelli R1s, Winchester SXR2 are around $2000.

The Turkish rifles and Remington 742 will be $1000 or under.
