Buy recommendations Budget Bolt Action Rifle with Underbarrel Picatinny Rail?

Rifle neophyte here. More of a shotgun man myself. Wanting to diversify my collection.

Looking for a medium to long range bolt action rifle with an underbarrel picatinny rail. Budget is around $1,000.00. Give or take.

Favoring anything as powerful, or more powerful, than .308 Win. Any rifle suggestions welcome.

The Ruger American Gen II 6.5 Creedmoor can be found for as cheap as $795 leaving you $200 for a swivel stud adapter, scope rings, a sling, or whatever else. I think 6.5cm is better than 308 if you're interested in longer ranges.
