Re: help buying first rifle please.
308win,a very good all around caliber, a very broad assortment of factory ammo , very reasonable prices and available almost any where you travel. If your thinking of a Savage bolt action, a good choice for the money and most savage riffles are very acurate, the 308 is a very effective round,with the right bullet it will take all species you wish to hunt in BC! practice and shooting confidence are what makes a marksman ,So far you have good sense, dont get bumped up to Magnun status untill your expert with a moderate recoil round such as 308 win,. good luck !
