    First rifle, Tikka T3 lite - 7mm-08 or 270?

    This is pretty much the line of though I had. The chances of me shooting 3 boxes at the range through this rifle in any one sitting are pretty slim anyway. That's what the 10/22 is for. :) I don't reload (although it's not out of the question down the road). I'm sure I will be prepared with...

    First rifle, Tikka T3 lite - 7mm-08 or 270?

    Thanks for the responses everyone. I think I'm settled on the .270. That's not to say I won't revisit the 7mm-08 again down the road. I'd love to get my wife into shooting and hunting, and I think a slightly heavier 7mm-08 would be perfect for her. At least that's what I'm going to tell...

    First rifle, Tikka T3 lite - 7mm-08 or 270?

    I'm going to be purchasing my first hunting rifle soon. I've settled on the Tikka T3 Lite in stainless. (I've read a lot of good things and it felt great shouldering it). Now I'm trying to decide on caliber. The Tikkas use the same action whether the rifle is a short action or a long...

    do you reload? if not do you plan to ever start?

    nope. i don't really shoot often enough to justify the time / initial cost... but i just found a local range that i like so that may change.
