Making a decision on my first rifle and have it narrowed down to these 2.

I'm leaning toward the Rugar but I really like the reliability Springfield is known for.

Yes I know good luck finding them but when I do I am buying it.

I would like to mention that I am a beginner but not a novice when it comes to firearms. I have shot plenty of times and have been trained in gun safety, but never owned my own.

Thanks for anyone taking the time to answer.

I like the M1, you might have to choose the one that is available first. Check pawn shops and forums for used, it might make the search easier.

Thats good advice I didn't think of pawn shops. But i feel like they are going to try charging 2 grand rather than buying from my local gun shop. Might just have to bite the bullet and pay the price for waiting so long.
