    Gun for first time deer hunting/wallaby hunting

    Hello

    So I currently only own a .22LR and this has been a great gun for knocking over hares, magpies (and a few wallabies) and a great starting gun.....butttt now i am really keen to get out into some more DOC land and try for more wallabies and larger critters, so am needing a bigger rifle, but I have no clue where to even start with what I should be looking for.

    Any help would be much appricated also please keep it a bit in layman's terms as I very fresh to this and still learning.
