Hello
I’d like to learn long distance shooting and there is an outdoor range nearby.
I only have experience with pistol.
Can someone recommend a rifle thats reliable but not high-end expensive.
Thanks

Where is the impala eating popcorn?

But just a quick answer before you get your feelings hurt. Look into the Savage line-up. They have multiple offerings from 223 to 338

Do complete your profile first.

Third, if they aren't bunched up, there is a ton of good advice here, even from these ball busters.

You only need to fill-out your profile if you want to sell something:

2. <span style="font-style: italic">You must fill out your profile with a city, state, and email address in your profile.</span>

Re: Newbie requests rifle recommendation

What you need is a very powerful and fast cartridge. I'd recommend at least a 338 Lapua Magnum, if not a 408 Cheytac or 50BMG. No better way to learn than with the real deal. Hell, its what the real snipers use! Top if off with a nice Barska or Tasco or Simmons scope with as much magnification as you can afford. Illuminated reticle is a big plus! Let us know how it goes!
