Thread: First rifle advice

Keep an eye out on second hand guns too....Graham Campian has some nice ones that woul dbe in Budget and if you can save a few $$$ omn the rifle by getting 2nd hand, you free up money for a better scope.

As for 270 versus other calibres, everyone has an opinion, but my advice is check out which calibres are most plentiful in the stores In both different brands and how much they carry in stock. Ballistically 270, 6.5/06,7mm08, 308, 30/06 et al are all very similar in ballistics out to 300m. Ammo is an expensive item to carry in stock for a shop so they carry more of the popular selling brands.
