Depends on what type of beasties you want to hunt.
Is there butter and salt on that?steven likes this.The best camouflage pattern is 'hold still and be quiet. '

Don't sit back with your beer and popcorn mate, have you purchased the 308 yet? What about the scope? Originally Posted by TyrinnS

Better scope than these combo types IMO.sako75 likes this.Dan M

Seriously... If your buying a rifle, the .223 or the .308. The .303 belongs in a museum and the 30/06 is probably a bit too much bang for a young fulla.
There's world of differences between a .223 and a .308, what you you want to shoot with it?veitnamcam and samusugiru like this.

That would get you started, scope is the first thing I'd replace. If its really worth $300, ask them for $250 off the price and buy a second hand Leupold... Originally Posted by TyrinnS

Knew someone would pipe up with that sooner than later. Originally Posted by mikee

308 would be a good choice as reasonably large bullet travelling at reasonably good speed and doesn't come with funny ponsonby coffeThe best camouflage pattern is 'hold still and be quiet. '
