.308

A .308 centerfire eh Dundee
I don't try to enter these threads anymore but as I know you mate and were you will generally hunt and what type of hunting you will be doing id say 308, in any brand because bush hunting dosnt judge.Good luck see you in 8 pages time buy then you would have bought a 308 and put a deer in the freezer before this thread dies a natural death:P
Just after opinions had a looksie but nothing certain yet.
dont skimp .... 50BMG
308 it is then Dundee (and I don't even have one - how bad is that)
Get a 308 cause BRADS has heaps of ammo:P
7.62x54r :D
Its unanimous (ok not quite )
Get a 308 and live happily ever after.
308 its all you will ever need
:thumbsup:
260 ;-)

I feel like such a fake, i dont have a 308! :(
Dang first centre rifle aye, thought a .223 would be a good start
I have owned a .270 before. Have looked at a nice .243 Ruger but from what I've heard might be a bit on the light calibre side of things.
308 is sounding good.
Are you going to reload for it ?
270 , 6.5 x 55 , 308
If this is to be a hunting rifle then my personal pick would be the 270 , there is a reason why it's highly regarded worldwide as a hunting round .
If your going to do a lot of shooting at the range as well as hunting get the 308 .
If your happy to do everything in a traditional , understated , efficient way , then get the 6.5 x 55 .
:)
What you going to use it for ??
223 is great entry rimfire
Cheap to run
Good for kids
A killer
Centre fire !!!!
You're pretty sharp for someone who doesn't know Fonzie.
Have you bought one yet Dundee??:D
223 would do the job assuming you can shoot straight.
Get a faster barrel twist rate so you can shoot heavier rounds easily. 1:8.
Nice a cheap to run and very versatile.
What what what ??
Are we there yet dad ??
Exciting !!
Thanks for everyones advice.
I purchased a Remmington 7mm-08

Nice gun
Superb. Looks THE SHIT.
Nice one, enjoy :)
That bloody big milk cheque was burning a hole in your pocket eh. Any way, what the F you were supposed to get a 308 we had decided that for you. Bloody ungrateful
Now all he needs is his reloading setup
Nice Dundee :thumbsup:
Just in time for a spring hunt. :)
Don't spill any Watties Sauce on her or it will scar her for life.
Cheers
