RE: RIFLE SUGGESTIONS PLEASE.
The 710 works ok, shoots pretty well but has a terrible track record here on these forums. Personally if I was you I would go to place that you plan on purchasing a rifle and try them all out and see which one fits you. Another consideration is the local pawn shop. Chances are you can get a good quality rifle with a scope and a wood stock, something that you can customize as finances allow for your $350 budget. Used is not always bad, sometimes it can be good, very good.
