[QUOTE="Fitch, post: 532782, member: 19372"] Why so much gun for antelope? Shoulder cannons as a first rifle, especially with a break that hurts the ears, are a great way to develope all sorts of bad habits if not an outright aversion to hunting. A rifle that needs a break with the accompanying noise doesn't seem like a good choice for a first rifle to me, but maybe it will work out. I'd have thought something like a .257 Roberts, or maybe a .270, or .284 Win, or even a .30-06 or .308 would be a better rifle for a novice hunter to start with. Fitch [/QUOTE]
