Try old Beretta. I looked at 50s Silver Hawk in very good conditon for $650. It handles like Winchester model 23 but you get dts with front articulated, Greener x-bolt, and some hand engraving but loose the ejectors. One must remember least expensive Beretta is still a BERETTA. The "guts" must be made to good standard as even screw heads holding forend iron to wood and those holding butt plate were nicely engraved.
