...not able to opine on the winchester...but did purchase a 'gallery-edition' version of the gold sable from the ny gallery about a year and a half ago...

...imho, the 689 is an outstanding rifle (factory regulated to moa at 40 metress, which has been personally attested to at 50 yards with the standard fixed sights, exhibition grade + wood, exquisite case coloring, beautifully made, well balanced, etc.) and a fairly good value (retail with the extra set of smooth bore barrels was around usd 9,250, but you can usually bargain below retail, especially if you have purchased previously or if you avoid the galleries altogether)...

...my only complaint has been with the smooth bore barrels, which only fire certain types of ammo, and which are nearly impossible to aim with the euro-style stock that came with the 689 (which, in fairness, assists in terms of sight acquisition with the 9.3 barrels)...
