my daughter wants a mule deer gun for our 1st muledeer hunt together was thinking of 280rem. what do we need
1 doner action (probably savage or stevens)
2 new barrel
3 recoil lug
4 stock
5 scope &mounts
is there anything else we might need ,she allready shoots a 7/08 out to 350-400yards pretty good but wants a BIGGER GUN. she also wants to be involved in mechanics of build (reason for savage) so it is HER rifle. she is only 5.1" so i think 7mag is out.any suggestions would be welcomed this hunt is what she wants for graduation from collage with honors in enginering so dad is proud and happy to take her hunting
thanks JWW
