Both are excellent choices.... I'd probably lean to the Remington 700 (assuming 24" barrel). Better aftermarket choices. A little lighter. I like the bolt of the Howa better.
But for hunting weight matters. For range work either are fine options.

The base rifle is just the beginning. Then comes glass and a sling, and if it is for long range a bipod. Which one has the better trigger? Which one stock fits you better? Also important questions. For hunting I use a Ruger gunsite scout rifle. So many great bolt guns today! Ask the experts at RDA what they think, too!
