Thompson/Center Encore® Accessories : Cabela's
Thomson center Encore or contender depending of the caliber range you want.
That is what I recommended for a mate to buy. Once taken apart it stays in a small bag when mountaineering.
On the contender you could have a22 lr+ a 204 or 223 + a 30-30+ a 44 mag and a 410 barrel.
On the encore a 223 or 22-250, + a 308 or 270 + a magnum cal and a 12 gauge barrel.
Of all these one which I saw was fantastic for a change barrel system. Price may be out of your budget depending on what you find, but check out the Kreighoff "Semprio" Oh my god. I had the pleasure of handling one and it was absolutely fantastic. the action was sooooo smoooth. Slick and simple. Fast and very very well made. I hat eto think of what it would cost but I am sure it will make those others look like any old rifle in the discount bin.

Hs precision has a takedown option as well, can be done with multiple barrels but doesn't come cheap either.
How about this one Blaser K95 | Trade Me not too expensive
But it is a nice Blaser
Update, got a few prices coming in at the moment, one of the biggest problems, is unable to handle any of the rifles I am most interested in,
Have discounted the BLR due to repeated reports of not returning to zero,
Have a luxus single shot been sent to me for a try, out, not a fully takedown rifle thought,
And think I have a Mauser M03 lined up for a few shots,
Currently, Considering a Verney Caron bolt action, take down in 9.3 x 62, and a second 7x64 second barrel, for $3700 as the best value, repeater.
Sum very nice rifles out there, esp. in euro doubles,
H.S.Precision Varmint takedown | Trade Me

I dream of that every time it's listed, I think my wife is worried that decided it a need and buy it!
