[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1244974, member: 97414"] I'm back tracking from Magnums to standard old school calibers in my last stages of game harvest and iron silhouette shoots. I never mention too folks on what to buy as its not part of the deal. One could look at weight of rifle too recoil. What ones intended main use it will be for. Area where your from and the critters too harvest. Where do you see this rifle fitting in 2 or 7 years down the road. And will the caliber and rifle brand you choose spark your interests every time you use it. These are qualities in search for my needs, and many awesome folks on this forum have their picks too. A happy medium of recoil and getting the job done is where I plan the most, next is the critters yet too harvest "if it works out that way". Just sharing ideas for one too consider along the way. Nothing wrong with taking some time too read threads here and External Ballistics Web pages,,, "take some of it with a grain of salt as it really boils down too our needs". PS: some folks mention we need canons to knock down critters, this is a yes and no as today's rifles breath new life with new bullets available on the market today. Don [/QUOTE]
