RE: New to Hunting...

RE: need help deciding what gun brand to buy

Well I just received my Savage 110 FP- all I can say is WOW.
It shoots quite a bit better than a few of the Rems I fired, but then again, heavier barrel to and gotta love that trigger!

RE: Tikka T3 or Weatherby Sub MOA

The Tikka T3 Lite is just that, Lite. At a shade over 6lb of course it will have more recoil, but it also has a huge price advantage and is also supposed to be MOA.
