[QUOTE="Tommytrees, post: 2599095, member: 114552"] Samuel- all of those mentioned can be good shooters. For 200 yards I don't believe you need a barrel over 20". However more than that won't hurt. I have a Ruger American that shoots 175 gr - 30 cal-100 yds - 0.5 " . So big or little $ won't necessarily matter. All those other firearms should do as well or better. I have used them all at one time or another. Accuracy in any firearm currently manufactured can usually do well when you find the load it likes. Guns are like people, some are better than others,very similar but different. Each has its own preference. Your friend may have to factor in cost vs finish vs weight vs how it feels when he shoulders it. He will have to decide what combination of things he likes or dislikes and get it in a suitable caliber for the type of hunting it will be used for. I'm not sure I have helped but hope so. Be safe and well, Tommy. [/QUOTE]
