The Blaser is a fine rifle if but quite pricey, you can still pick up Rem. 700 and even the 788 very reasonable. If you are hunting whitetails the .270 is superb but I would not overlook the 7mm-08. a very fine and effective choice. Good luck on your hunt.
Yea, it is a pricey rifle. Good thing is he gave it to me in trade for some things I'm helping him out with. :dirol:
