What gun should I buy?

I am really getting serious about buying a new gun, so I was wondering which one to get. I looked at the Rugers and some Weatherbys but I cant decide what gun to get. I already know what caliber so I just want to know the gun

I think it depends on what you want the gun for. If it's for the range maybe a heavy barrel, if it's for hunting maybe something short,light and easy to carry around all day. as far as brand? that is a hard decision with so many to chose from. personally I think one shoots just as good as another but prefer a wood stock witch by the way seems to be becoming a rarity if you don't order it w/one.most guns I see stocked on gun shop walls are composite stocks these days." Happy hunting "

Savage is producing some incredible rifles at awesome prices. I've got a model 111 in .338 Win Mag synthetic stainless with accustock and accutrigger. Those two features make it a truly incredible gun.

You can't go wrong with a Mosin Nagant.(7.62x54r) The Russians made about 17 million between 1891-post WWII. You can pick one up for around $100, run it through hell, and still shoot extremely accurately.

I prefer the Remington Model 700 30.06. I have had great success with it close and long range. I shot a coyote at 302 yards running last year with it. Whatever you decide, practice makes perfect. I shoot it alot and can make the long shots due to that.

definitely agree about savage. they make amazing products at affordable prices, and they have lefty models for us southpaws! i'm partial to my r700 but i also like the winchester model 70 which has a long line of success

Ruger M77 6.5 Creedmoor, shoots very well with very little recoil. It will out shoot anything that I have shot in a long time.

I think it may be very convenient. You can easily compare prices in different countries and find your dream hunting. Your opinion is highly needed!
