Decent inexpensive rifle for deer

[Cedar Creek]

Sooner State Pawn has a good deer rifle at a good price posted here on Oklahoma Shooters with a price drop to $379. It is a Ted Williams Model 53 (Winchester Model 70) in .270, probably 70's vintage, with a Leupold VX-I scope. Out the door with a heck of deer rifle with a walnut stock at a good price.

Now, that's a good buy. If it's in decent shape, I would grab that one.

Yes, I think it's a good way to go. Unlike the starter rifle concept the good rifle/good scope combo has you set for life. I have to go to OKC this afternoon and I will keep chanting "hell no, hell no, hell no!" to keep myself from bringing home another one that I don't need.

I own all three calibers. My go to is my 25-06. If you don't reload, I would go either 243 or 270. Cost and availability of factor ammo is better. Biggest thing with a deer rifle is to shot it a lot till it becomes second nature. As others said, it about shot placement more then the size of the bullet.

That looks like pretty much what I'm looking for. I won't be able to check on it until Saturday, and see what my finances look like after I pay bills

I always said I'd never buy one of these but when I saw they had the 22-250 for 230 I bought one..m

They still got 234 rifles for 249.

I am in need of a decent rifle for hunting deer, but I don't want to break the bank. I'm thinking something in .243, .270, or 25-06. What are you all's opinions? I've seen things like savage axis, ruger American, remington 770, etc. Any advice or suggestions are appreciated.

if one is truly only harvesting deer ... let's see one shot per deer ... about 6-8 shots per season to sight in your rifle .. costs for ammo for deer hunting has little to no relevance in terms of choosing caliber.

that said .. one of the lowest total costs for a good deer rifle/ammo has to be Mosin-Nagant ... last one I purchased in mint condition cost about $125 including 500 rounds of ammo. cabellas has one for $169 right now ... http://www.cabelas.com/product/Mosin-Nagant-Model-Rifle/710007.uts
don't think it would be real hard to find a better deal than above.
