[QUOTE="ken snyder, post: 568719, member: 26019"] Keeping an eye on what your shooting preferences might be in the future is the best way to start. An example if you are certain that your interests will be as stated, I would think of something built off of an action for the 308, they are common and plentiful which equates to getting a good deal on one. It is very successfuly used with cartridges from .243 to .338. If you are thinking of maybe wanting something with a little more poop, starting with a 30 - 06 size action will yield cartridges that are more or less quite common from 6.5 - .375 . If you plan ahead its all only a barrel change away from being something else! - make the wrong choice and you will be needing more than just a barrel! [/QUOTE]
