Hey guys. I am looking to pick up a cheaper, reliable rifle for my teenage sons to hunt deer with in SE MN (next season) and also in the hill country of Wisconsin. I came across this deal at Cabelas - https://www.cabelas.com/p/savage-ar...ion-rifle-with-vortex-diamondback-scope-combo
Is this something I should stay away from? Anything better or equal for the same kind of money? I was thinking of getting it in a .270 - but not sure what caliber is best. I know the 6.5 has been popular as well. I would like something with enough power but not much recoil. I currently have several shotguns and also a 7mm rem mag Tikka T3x lite that I will be using.
I appreciate any thoughts/help! I do not have much rifle knowledge!
