Orion 1I assume you want a rifle, right?
Hard to say where is the BEST place to buy such a thing, as there are SO many gun retailers in this country.
Try
Gunsamerica to get an idea of US prices. Right now the rifles most available in that caliber are Winchester Model 70s.

DesertRamIf you're happy with a plain ol' black stocked "controlled round push feed" rifle, your best bet would probably be Wal-Mart. If you want one of the nicer models, any of the gun shops in a bigger town will have a nice selection of Winchesters and Brownings for sure, and maybe some of the new offerings - Tikka, Savage, Kimber. Lots of good places to buy rifles here.

SabotFor value, the 300 WSM in a Savage hunter is hard to beat. Ask your dealer if he can get one for around $385 and if not, ask another dealer. You'll get one and it will drive tacks right out of the box. I have one and it caused me to sell a 270 and a 300 Win Mag which I no longer need.

DB BillSavage also sells a rifle chambered in the Lazzeroni Patriot (30-caliber) which will give you another 200 fps with a 180gr bullet....once you buy the brass the cost of loading will be the same....take a look at
