    Enfield in .308 Win?

    i have one. It is kind of cool but it has a terribly sloppy chamber which causes the brass on commercial 308 to swell up considerably with anything approaching a max load. realy a bummer as otherwise i love this rifle.

    Thoughts on the Remington 710 in 7mm Rem Mag?

    Far to much money for a 710. they do for about 200 bucks used. not very desireable although they do shoot well.

    Making the Mini-14 reliable?

    Just FYI you cant hunt with a mini 14 in pa. Also some of the game wardens will surely try to say you are poaching if you are hiking with one. You may have to prove otherwise. PA is a police state just not as bad as some others.

    Best Rifle for this situation???

    The ak and sks are not as accurate as an ar variant. However they are much more tolerant of dirt,lack of cleaning and weather conditions and you can have 2 for the same price as 1 ar. It is a matter of preference really. If you are like me you want one of everything.:)

    accuracy of a remington 710

    I have one. Im pretty picky as well. I dont like the feel of the bolt or the fact that the trigger guard is molded into the stock. The scope is about a 20 dollar model. Now I believe the original question was accuracy. Mine will touch a full mag at 100 yards. Excellent trigger pull. Imagine...

    Deerfield or Marlin 1894?

    The deerfield looks like a great weapon. I have been considering it for a while. But the lack of any higher capacity mags has mad me reluctant. even a 10 rounder would be perfect.

    Best Rifle for this situation???

    If you are set on a semi buy 2 sks's . Replace the stocks and sights with something more ergonomical. You will still be under 500 bucks for the pair. Next vote would be mini 14 or mini 30. However do not discount a marlin lever gun. meets all the criteria quite well just isnt a semi.

    Making the Mini-14 reliable?

    If someone would figure out a way to make a mini 14 take ar 15 mags its reliability would be on par with that of the sks. I have both and it is the mags that leave something to be desired for the mini. A 16 inch medium weight barrell would also be a plus.
