Welcome nice to have another on board good to hear you got a stag in the roar
Ok rifles himmmm
I'd say find an action that you like and feel safe and familiar with.
Also one that you can bed easily (makes it more accurate).
Also that you can adjust the trigger or replace upgrade at a latter date.
Caliber wise 708 minimum I would stay clear of anything lighter until you have some more experience.
Now that I've posted this watch out for the bites they won't be to long in coming
Welcome Project good on you getting into hunting its an awesome sport and im sure your father inlaw will enjoy getting back into it.
As for rifle cal anything but a .270 and as long as its a Tikk and you will be fine.

I think thats the problem i have, there's so many different calibers. I feel confident with the 7mm08 a Tikka would be nice, I'll just have to keep my eyes out for something.
I have a bit more to learn, bedding a rifle? I can bed my wife easily but a rifle... Might need to research a little on breaking in and bedding a new rifle i think.
One reason i was looking at the savage weather warrior was the accutrigger and accustock it came with.
I can always adapt and experiment with other rounds and rifles later on. I don't think I've read on here once that someone had too many firearms... Haha.
Now I'm over 5 posts i think i can post pictures now. This was the young one i took over Easter, No beast but its my trophy, I even saved the shell case as a momento. I'll never forget that experience and managing to do it all by myself. I did forget to take a camera with me so the only photo's i got was when we were home.
Just click on the icon that has a tree inside a frame and upload straight from your PC, all I see from anyone using photobucket now is the 100%full 3rd Party hosting warning
Did it work for you that time?
Nice stag well done! PS nothing wrong with a Savage
Have a look at the Nathan Foster books Extensive Field-Tested Rifle & Cartridge Research - BallisticStudies.com
Welcome bro. I just lost someone close to Pancreatic- It was tough going.
Hope to see you continue to post up and or even pop over these ways one weekend for a shoot or a hunt.

You will find that a Tikka won't need to be beded neither of mine are, and a second hand one in what ever cal will see you right.
Just as important or even more important is a good quality scope.
