    Someone on the forum was advertising a Mauser 98 action in 7x57. That would be a perfect starting calibre, in a quality rifle, which will last you a lifetime. Somewhere around $1500 - $2000.
    He’s missed out I’m afraid Hugh.. but the Mauser would have been a cracker of a first rifle!

    Fortunately I’m also about to chuck my tikka 270 bushpig and the buy and sell too.. be a cracking first rifle!
