PostSubject: Good deer hunting gun???   Sun Nov 16, 2008 12:15 pm

Well I am looking at getting a new gun fro X-mas and I rezlly want a new bolt action. I have been shooting a .30-30 and am pretty comfortable with it recoil wise. I want a gun that has tthe same or more stopping power without too much more recoil (barely noticeable). I have heard that the .308 has more power and the recoil isnt much more..is that true? I am what you would say "recoil sensitive" due to the fact that hhavent been shooting very long and that I am small...what do you reccommend in terms of recoilsimilar to the .30-30 and good deer stopping power?

Thanks

a .308 is very good. but matbe you would want to try out like a .243 or a .270 a 7milimeter08 is also good.
