does your budget include optics?
i would look for a rem 700 chambered in 308 win, with hs precision stock. have an extra nut put in few inches back from the front sling swivel so you can run a bag rider during competition.
will be a 9 lb rig depending on your optic choice, which won't be pleasant to carry in the hills for long, or long strings of shooting on the bench; but sacrifices that will have to be made to allow dual purpose usage.
my .02 cents, but this advise cost you even less than that; so take it for what it's worth............good luck.
