[QUOTE="Tony Formicola, post: 1833489, member: 103851"] Dude, for real..If you are just getting into hunting you would be best served with a stock rifle such at the Remington 700 in a very established heritage caliber. I would get the 30-06 or the 7 Rem Mag and get started. There is even merit to going with a somewhat lighter caliber that will still take your game out to 300 yards such as the .308 or 7mm-08. Also, there are plenty of second focal plane scopes in the 300-500 price range that would be more than up to the job. You won't need to twist any knobs. See how you like it first and if you really get the bug you will have a better idea of what direction to go. If you were buying your first car to learn about driving and get back and forth to work you would not need a Lamborghini or a highly tricked out Mustang. This is the same thing. [/QUOTE]
