Pretty much comes down to if you want an exposed hammer or not.
I've handled one in 308, nice handy bush rifle.
Other option is Baikal Izh-18 at half the price.
If you want to scope it, the Bergara comes with a rail, if you want to go open sights like Skinner, the Baikal is easier - just use the rimfire dovetail model from skinner.
Not sure if the Scout is take-down ?
