I am looking for information more than anything. I am new to the whole firearms thing. I went hunting for the first time last year and I am now hooked. I used a Rem700 7mm08 last year. The only other rifles I have shot are a 22 and a Browning 22-250.
Many people have told me to buy many different guns such as 30-06, .308, 7mm 08, .270, ect. I don't really know much about any of these so if anyone can give me a hint on what would be good for me to buy I would really appreciate it.
I live and hunt in VT, and plan on hunting mainly whitetail and possibly moose if I get a permit. My experience is somewhat limited. I am not sure what a 7mm 08 compares to as far as kick goes but I wouldn't want too much more than that.
I also will need to get a descent scope with the gun and am looking for suggestions on this as well. I want to spend between $500-$600 on everything. Everyone that I have spoken to has suggested Remington 700 and I think I will probably stick with that unless anyone has any complaints on them. Thanks for the help in advance.
