[QUOTE="Homer, post: 12620, member: 2111"] Check out used guns - I have gotten some really good deals in pawn shops. I really like the Win model 70's because of the safety - it is excellent. I am not saying don't get a Savage - I just don't have any experience with them. I would suggest that you get a rifle that the trigger can be worked by a gunsmith since proper trigger pull is critical to good accurracy. The gunsmith I use here in Georgia charges $49.50 for a trigger job and his work is very good.The 308 is a great choice but there are others that work just as well - 7mm-08, 270, 280, 30-06. One last comment - buy the best optics you can afford. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
