[QUOTE="tadge, post: 169382, member: 9231"] Thank you all for the replys, I was after the one 'all rounder' rifle but like girls...........there is just no such thing!! I might get a simple F class in .308 and then a general purpose hunting rifle. I have only shot .22-250 and .308's and I am worried about recoil with the bigger magnums, from what I have read I think a 7mm Rem Mag is about as big as I want to go, so I dont begin to flinch. There are plenty of second hand F classes around over here so that will be the go. As for the varminter I am considering the Tikka T3 Camo Stainless or similar, once again, I am worried about recoil in 7mm with such a light rifle. As for a .300 being too big for pigs, many around this neck of the woods believe they are too powerfull as the bullet has no time to expand and exits leaving the pig to run around wounded..........more of a moral issue than anything. Any thaughts on my choices above? Cheers Tadge [/QUOTE]
