The gun price you mentioned seems very reasonable. The caliber is your choice and chance to fulfill a dream. Beware though that if you have been shooting a 308 and a 6mm that you will need to spend plenty of time getting used to the recoil of the guns you are considering. My Favorite reach out and touch someone rifle is the 7mm STW. It is only available in the #1 Ruger I believe. Just have a great time making your decision, but buy a few boxes of practice ammo and shoot that rifle before you take it hunting. Have fun.
