Buy recommendations Looking for good .223 options

Looking at getting a 223 for target shooting at local range, I was looking at some of the savage models like the Axis II or Apex Storm, but I see a lot of mixed opinions on them. Would it be fine for target practice for a beginner? And before you say it, yes I have a 22, I was just looking at someone with slightly more kick and range.

Edit: im seeing alot of tikka T3x replies and all im wondering is: A, is it worth the extra 400 above the axis 2 and B, do i need a $1500 range .223

Let me tell you something NOT to buy, an Adler AD500.

Bought one of those and had to open every bolt and threadlock it. Hell; the pic rail got loose while I was trying to sight it in 😂😂
