I went on my first hunt last year and am now looking to purchase my first hunting rifle. I have read that many people like the Winchester 70 and the Remington 700 but wasn't sure what the difference is between them.
I hunted with a friends Rem700 in .270 last season which was nice but I didn't really have anything else to compare it with. I plan to do all of my hunting in GA, which consists of white tail and shots of a 100 yards or less. I say 'all of my hunting' because I do not think I will be going outside of GA to hunt but you never know what can happen. I am not decided on what caliber but was thinking of either a .270 or 30-06. I am looking to spend a maximum of $800 on rifle, rings and scope.
While I'm asking, what do you think of the semi-auto guns like the Rem7400? Thanks for your advice.
