Thread: First centrefire rifle

T





I agree, get a .22, shoot it heaps, best way to practice with loads of cheap ammo.

Then get a versatile calibre like a 308 or one of it's derivatives that will handle deer, pigs, goats, wallabies, tahr, chamois, long range gongs, paper and even rabbits if you are keen.

To me a .223(or similar) is a second centrefire, more specialised for small game. 3rd and 4th would be a long range rifle and a big bore, then you have all your bases covered!
