If cost is an issue, you might check out the Weatherby Vanguard. I have each of the three you list except the Tikka. Good friend of mine has one in .270, though, and he's pleased with it. Matter of personal preference. Good luck on your choice.
Savage is a very accurate rifle also. The new Weatherby Vanguard S2 is as well very very accurate. But it's like you said it's about which one appeals to you in all area's, balance, how it shoulders, how it feels in your hands, etc. Of the 3 you listed I don't have or have ever had. The Savage and new Weatherby I do have and the Weathery isn't any more than the ones your talking about and it has sub-moa guaranteed accuracy.
Thanks for the clarification, Fred. I was talking about the Vanguard S2, though if you want to spend a bit more, getting the original Vanguard-Sub MOA with the nicer stock isn't a bad option, either.

I use a Tikka T3 Hunter in .270 winchester it bucks the wind and with the 135 gr Matchkings can shoot incredible groups. also you can buy ammo any where and usually places always has it in stock..
8 shot group from 100yds
it will paste groups at 300 yds under 2"! im sure it would do better if I could!
