[QUOTE="bear41, post: 2749666, member: 126209"] Since you are a shotgun shooter, recoil is likely less of an issue for you. There are tons of serviceable guns that would meet your needs. The 6.5 Creed is big at the moment and available from a bunch of manufactures. If price is an issue and you are ok with a bolt action Savage Axis may work for you. As noted above the Ruger American is also a good choice. As you may want to use it as deer gun you may want to go 6mm or above, so 243, 6mm, 260, 6.5 Creed or 25-06. If you are looking for a semi auto the prices go up. One other word of advice would be spend as much on a scope as you spend on the rifle. Best of luck in your choice. [/QUOTE]
