Need help deciding on a 30-06

I'm trying to decide on a 30-06.

I'm deciding between a howa 1500, Weatherby vanguard, savage 110, and Winchester xpr.

Anyone have any recommendations? Also scope recommendations?

This doesn’t quite answer your question, but I have the XPR in 270 Win. It shoots quite well. It was my first firearm, and I am still somewhat new to guns, so I can’t compare it to much else. However, it is a little more pricey than what you need for a basic hunting/target rifle, so if that is what you want, you could probably save ~$400 by going with a Savage. Mine came with a Vortex Crossfire scope on it, which works just fine.
