Get a Remington Model 710 .270Get a .30-06 if you want but a 270 shoots a bit better (somewhat). You can pick one up ----scoped---- for about $400. I got mine for $350 and mounted a Leupold on it.
For a cheap gun it holds 1.25" groups at 100 yards. Cant go wrong....hence the name :-D .270 Douglas Friess wrote:
