Hey 30-06lover,
There are a bunch of good cheap guns out there, like the guys have been saying. I recently setup a new Savage 62F with a 4x32 scope, total cost at Wal-Mart was $135.00 {that's everything includeing a box of CCI Stingers}. It shoots great. I tested at 50yrds and got 30 shots in a 3/8" circle, which I think isn't bad for a semi-auto. Now I want one too {The one I setup is my girlfriends}
Happy Hunting,
