[QUOTE="avfromvt, post: 839329, member: 28961"] I am going to be hunting some larger clear cuts in VT I am looking for a rifle to shoot deer and the occasional black bear -- ranges from very close to a max of 500 yards. I am also not a huge fan of the recoil of the magnum calibers and do not want use a break. I have been looking at the 260 rem and think it would suit my needs. - I don't mind a heavier rifle somewhere in the 8 ish lb range - I like the look and feel of a more classic wood stocked rifle but it is not a must - If i do go with the 260 which manufacturer offers the correct twist to stabilize heavier bullets. - not sure if the 260 is the right caliber Was looking for some suggestions on a factory rifle that would suit my needs. Would like to keep the rifle cost to <$1200 Thank you in advance Adam [/QUOTE]
