first let me say that i am a new here and this seems to be a great form.
like the title says i am looking to buy my first high powered rifle soon and i am not sure what to get. i want a bolt action, that will be big enough to hunt deer and possible elk. also it needs to be a round that is easy to reload. i am looking to spend around $500. i have been looking at the rem 700. in the 7mm. i found one for 450 w/ no scope and it has a little rust on it( not much). he said he has only shot the gun 12 times in about 10 years. would that gun be a good deal or should i keep looking?
thanks any info wound be appreciated
