[QUOTE="Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow, post: 753636, member: 7123"] There is no finer rifle for the money right now than the [B]T/C Icon[/B], either the original medium action for around $875, or the Classic for $100 more. Less money if you can find one used. But are you wanting a turnbolt, pump, levergun, semi-auto, or single shot? I prefer turnbolts for hunting usually, but have a little bit of everything. .270 Win is an excellent caliber, one of the finest, if not the finest for deer. But danged near any caliber will kill a deer, so pick whatever suits your fancy, from .243 win on up. If you want to stay under $650 or $700 and are buying new, look at the CZ 550, the Tikka T3, the Savage 14/114 Classic, Weatherby Vanguard, or Remington 700 BDL. If you want to go economy, the Stevens 200 and Marlin XL-7 are fine (if ugly) rifles. [/QUOTE]
