I'm just talking off the top of my hat but I would think that they are worth it if you want one in that choice of calibers. However, from what I've read from others on this site, I'd speculate that you need to consider a stock glass bedding job as it is not mentioned in any of the company material.... and you may want to have the feeding and trigger tuned by a professional because of the type of game you'll be hunting. Still, from my experience with my 550 I'd still believe it is a good starting place at a generally reasonable price.
