Thread: Explaining Brands

Hey Guys

New too all this , just in the process of sending away for my FAl at the moment . Obviously browsing online for rifles and just wondering if you could shed some light on which brands i should be looking at ?
Been looking at 308, 270 , or 7mm08 kind of narrowed caliber choice down , but Im lost as to what brands better .

Is it a case of the more you spend the better the rifle ?
Looking to spend around the 1000-1300 ish mark for a scoped rifle

Seem to of come across a few cheaper savages for the 600 Mark , but just recently found Howa's for just over 1k new

Possibly opening a can of worms here i guess ,but just a wee bit lost
Also understand the value of scope plays a huge part in the combo too

In the off chance i do come across a great value deal , the father in-law will buy it and i'll but it off him once my applications finalised .

Thanks in advanced
