GameHauler Report post Posted January 12, 2009 Not sure why you want a short mag But I heard Lark has his 270 up for sale. It comes complete with windage and elevation indicators Might want to shot him a PM Sorry for the hijack Good luck on your search Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
luvdemcoues Report post Posted January 12, 2009 That gun looks a little too high tech and pricey for me! My brother-in-law has never rifle hunted, only archery hunted. He now wants to start rifle hunting, but knows absolutely nothing about rifles. I am just partial to the WSM's and think they shoot great with factory rounds.

Red Rabbit Report post Posted January 12, 2009 What is his price range? On the lower end, he might consider the Weatherby Vanguard, Savage, Remington SPS, or Tikka T3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stray Horse Report post Posted January 12, 2009 For a first, and only rifle I'd go with a .270, .30-06 or some standard round. There's some good deals on rifles here. You just have to wait for the right one that you really want. Picking a rifle for me is a personal issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
