    I have also started reloading, and i think with today shortages this may also be a fairly common rifle to get reloading supplies for.

    Cheers

    yes you have a wide choice and dont forget .222 equally as good as .223 on goats - some oldies to keep an eye out for Remington 788 ( good ones are tack drivers ) and Remington 700 especially the model seven - Tikka LSA 55 and 595 well made and usually very accurate - BRNO Fox was good - BSA Hunter very nice - and all the new ones large choice there and all okay - Bergara have a reputation for accuracy -and Howa well made its what you like
