So graduation from college is coming up in december and I have some decisions to make. As a grad present my mom wants to send me on a big game hunt or something along those lines. I've hunted pa white tails since I was 12. I am kinda leaning towards an elk hunt. This raises a problem. I hunt with a Marlin 336 in 35 remingtonand its my only hunting rifle.
To alleviate this problem my dad would like to buy my a rifle as his gift to me. I've decided on a 30-06. I'm thinking either a Remington 700 BDL or a new Winchester model 70 sporter. My dad has an early 90's ADL that I love but those model 70's are beautiful.
If you were in my shoes, what type of hunt and which rifle?
