Buy recommendations Long range hunting gun suggestions?

I’m looking for my first longish range hunting rifle. I want something of good quality to last a long time, maybe around the 2k range.

I won’t be doing crazy intense mountain hunts but I don’t want to limit myself, I really want to start learning long range shooting and spend some good time plinking. Probably looking at .308 caliber.

I was looking at some Sako, like the s90 but my friend is convinced I should get a Bergara but I read some reviews of how it’s hard to get moa and find the right ammo that is accurate.

T3x lite, superlight, roughtech all off the shelf perfect hunting rifles and easily light enough to trek with.

If you're not going to be doing treking/stalk hunting, that is, if you're driving and walking 5 minutes to a deer stand or blind, a CTR will double as a great range toy due to the thicker barrel taking on my heat before having to stop shooting.
