Deer rifle for small girlfriend
Ok so my girlfriend is coming hunting with me this year and I need to get her a rifle. Right now my big consern is finding the right caliber, but I am also starting to think about type of rifle. The calibers I had in mind are 243, 25-06, 270, 7mm-08, and 308. She is small, 5'2" 110 pounds, so I don't want a rifle that she will hate to shoot. As far as rifles go I definatly want to stay with a bolt action, but I am not sure about model. I really like my rem 700, but what else is good quality and under 500. Popular older rifles are definatly good. since we will probably cut the stock for her. I have seen alot of used savage 110's fairly cheap. Are these any good or are they cheap for a reason? What about Rem 788's? Any ideas will help thanx guys.
