[QUOTE="gyrfalcon, post: 2326926, member: 120244"] For a budget rifle, Tikka. For a step up a basic Bergera. Hard to go wrong with either one. Accurate and well made. Cheap Savage and Ruger Americans are sloppily made, many fore ends touching the barrels, cheap plastic parts, breaking in cold weather. Deer are easily put down with modern chamberings from 6mm up. With all caliber, bar none, the most important part is where you plant your bullet. I have seen a 120 lbs Arctic Peary caribou, shot with a .338 and 250 grain PowerPoint, collapse then jump up and escape by running into an inaccessible Boulder field .😬😬 [/QUOTE]
