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

You can get some deals on Gp. Just looked and you can get a tikka ctr 223 with scope for $1700 or alone for $1100.

Tikkas are reliable and best at price point
