    If it's your first center fire rifle then let's face it you will buy another in 12 months.
    You will want to get out and shoot all sorts of shit from targets,rabbits deer goats and gongs.
    So get something that you can afford to run and something that isn't going to boot the shit out of you.
    I would buy a Tikka in 6.5 Creedmoor as plenty of ammo buy all the same brand to give you good brass to reload later.
    Put a vx5 or a Z5 on it and a DPT and go hunting being a happy man.
    Spend the big dollars and rifles once you have tried a few others.
