westforkhunting Joined: 08/13/2009 Location: TX	Hello All, I am trying to find out what the best rifle would be for me to get this upcoming deer season. I will be mainly going for Whitetail but there is a possibility for some mule deer. What would you recommend?? I will be buying one soon so let me know! Help!

It belonged to my grandfather and is really a varmit gun but I've had no troubles bringing down a deer with it. I think a .243 is a good size for women, not too big, not too small. My sister-in-law has a nice composite .243 that she likes alot because it is light and wears well in the snow, rain, etc. Firearms - An excellent investment!

It's a great gun! Right out of the box I was able to shoot a group that you could put a quarter over it! It's very light and you can carry it all day and not even know it's there. It does have a little more recoil because it's such a light gun, but it has a great recoil pad so it doesn't really affect a person a whole lot. You just have to go with what your comfortable with, only you can tell what you like and don't like. I handled a lot of the guns at Scheel's before I picked this one out, and I'm glad I did. I had people telling me to get this gun or that one, but I finally decided on this Tikka. The action is so smooth, well worth the money!!
