Whats a good rifle for starters?

umm need a bit more info bud,. Age, size, what you will be hunting, what type of gun have you shot before, rifle or shotgun???

age=13 height=5'5 weight=164 Im just looking for a a dependable rifle...i've shot a 12 gauge, a .22 ,and a 7mm...(i own all of them)

What's wrong with the 7mm?

get a .223 or a 22-250 or something and hunt some coyotes

your 7mm is just fine.. BUT if u want sumthin new any decent 243, 270, 30- 06 will do just fine.. i own and prefer the 270 myself.. likley just because i own one though.. lol.. works fine though.. i have shot deer with it at 15 yards and out to 225.. but it will kill em at much farther than that also

the 7mm will work for any thain you need to kill unless you live in africa but if you want something small get a browning or winchester youth model or if you biger you might not nead a youth model and get any thian from 223 to 270 i recomend a 243-243 wssm or 270-270 wsm

i probably would get a 30-30.

heck the 7mm with do the trick on deer, elk, moose bear, u got a .22 perfect for varmints, 12 gauge for birds and now just like what coyote buster said get yourself a .223, 22-250, .243 for coyotes and there is nothin in North America you wont beable to hunt, well unless you go for some alaskan/yukon moose and grizzs then i would suggest something a lil bigger then a 7mm but it would still do the trick

nothin is wrong with my 7mm its my favorite rifle..im just lookin for a rifle that i could beat around with and is dependable and affordable. because i dont want to always use the 7mm cuz i want it to last
