Newby Lefty Hunter - Looking for 1st all around hunting rifle

[Cbelg]

I think I have a viper hst 4-16x that will go on it for now. It comes in at only 20oz I think. Bipod, sling and a cheek pad next to get.

I have a Leupold VX-Freedom 4-12x40 on mine. No complaints. Its pretty light. A bit over 8lbs with sling and buttstock pouch/slight cheek riser. Although they are now $100 more than when I bought mine and IMO they arent worth it at that price.

I have a vortex hst 4-16 that will probably go on this for now that weighs around 20oz I think. Need to figure out bipod and then what ammo it likes.

Swfa 3-9 comes in at 19-20 ounces and is a better scope than a vortex. I have 2 fixed 6 swfa’s on my tikkas and have no problem shooting out to 300 yards with them

I love my lefty t3x’s! Get a vertical grip if you are going to shoot the factory stock.
Check out the 168gr eldm superformance after you break the rifle in.

Had a viper hs 4-16x50mm that I mounted in Tammy extra lows, added the pistol grip and sling. She’s all in 7lb 10oz. Just about half of the savage 110 tactical.

Don't overlook the beretta brx1 rifles. The bolt and ejection flips right or left handed and it's a smooth straight pull action. Offered in 243, 6.5 cm, 308, 3006, and 300wm, they are elk capable.

Personally I have the 243, 20" and have taken coyote & deer with it. Coyote was 360 away, 1 shot.

They are a little pricey, but a better design than the savage impulse, and not as spendy as blaser etc.

Factory Tikka 6.5 creed or PRC. Nightforce SHV scope. Practice until you’re very good then think about other options like switching out the stock and upgrading.

Creed is the choice if you’re planning on staying below 600-700 yards.
