I would like to buy a Remington 7400 for my wife. The reason I am buying a semi auto is because, less recoil. I will also be having a muzzle break installed by a gunsmith. I know that bolt actions are more accurate, but I need to cut the recoil down as low as I can and still have a good bullet for elk and mule deer. Otherwise I would get a bolt .243. It will be chambered in .270. Does anyone know if this gun will shoot accurate enough? If it is not going to be reliable and accurate then I will do something else. Price is an issue so that is why I have came to the 7400, unless someone knows of a better semi auto for $400?
