i need some help from you guys and gals
 

my brother is looking to get into hunting this year and he needs a rifle i told him a 30-06 is a great gun for what we hunt here elk deer antelope etc...
he needs to get fully set up rifle scope sling and scope mounts for under $600.00
so this is where i need the help he needs a good gun at a moderate price
i told him remington winchester but i dont know the prices on these any suggestions would be great
thank you in advance

On a budget the howa is a fine rifle.Savages are also quite accurate but look a little crude.As far as cartridge I prefer the 7mm mag over the 30-06 as it shoots flatter with very tolerable recoil.

I saw a used 270 Ruger in a shop in Lander with a scope. I' d suggest looking for a used rifle and a good scope. Where in Wyoming are you?

Savage is always having a sale of thier package deal for around $400.00 .It has everything you mentioned and would work fine . Or just watch the sales around and you should have no trouble finding a rifle for $600.00 Halcon

Ruger is generally less than Winchester or Remington and a nice rifle.
Can' t go wrong on a budget with a Savage.
NEF makes a nice single shot for $200 dollars. Great value for the money, they generally shoot well, if I had a really tight budget I would definitely look at one.
I have one in .223 nice little rifle, shoots 1" groups, and the trigger was OK when I got it.

Saw a good product review on a savage 06 with a scope already mounted and bore sighted. The package is sold at wal-mart. I know sounds a little odd but it got good reviews for the price, although I have no personal expreience with the kit. Should be under the $600 limit.

RE: i need some help from you guys and gals
 

I know that the Walmarts around here sell the Savage package deals for about $400. Weatherby Vanguard (Howa) for about $400, Basic Winchester 70 for less than $400. They also have Bushnell 3200 for less than $200, Nikon Buckmasters for less than $200, and Leupold VX-II for less than $300.
On a budget you can see that Walmart might be your best bet to get a good rifle for under your $600 mark.
