Eeww. Who would have a Savage or four.

I own two Model700 and would never that model. However, it will still make deer dead!

Na go for Remington 700, that model is shit heap. Stock flex etc causing inaccuracy.

still hasn't replyed my question.

Mate its your first rifle not your last.
You will sell it later and move on to something nicer later on.
Just Buy anything from trademe bigger than a .243 with a 4 power scope or better and go hunting.

yea mate I have kept that in mind just don't wanna be bying anything that's gonna blow up in my hands or shoot 2m off .

Is that a fricken Loupy copy he has added? That guys a munt

Shit I could have brought that tardme 270, smites animals left right and centre deal for 500 bucks and saved a f@#king fortune

Seriously might I suggest doing a Hunts course and trying as many other guns as you can.
Someone at the local deerstalkers might even have something they would part with that you could see, touch, feel and shoot first.

I have some real shockers in the flesh which were described as gold standard on that site.

Would be a shame to see you sink all your cash into a dud.

Well fuck, looks I'll be changing to a .270 now. Can't argue with those facts

Toby, I can help you there, Have a 270WSM barrel in the safe, unfired even must be worth a fortune.

First rifle, limited budget , but a decent budget, 800$ is nothing to sneeze at.
If you wish to buy new, rather than second hand
Perhaps you could look toward the marlin xl7, I hear they are a fairly competent rifle with a good accuracy reputation.
One of the Howa packages maybe.
