I’m not new to rifles but new to big game rifles. I’ve got a .243 ive used for coyote hunting the past 12 years. I’m now looking into getting a elk/deer rifle. I’m leaning towards a 30-06 solely on the fact that then me and my dad can shoot the same rounds Incase we’d loose bullets or some dumb scenario comes up. I was thinking of putting a fairly good 4.5-12x scope on. I know this setup would kill lots of stuff, but was more somwondering if there’s any accessories or things to look for when selecting a gun for example safety position or scope covers or a bipod. I’ll take brand and caliber recommendations or ones to avoid, since I’d probably be looking for something used or atleast on the lower end of intermediate prices guns. Just curious what you experienced guys know since I’ve been focusing mostly on learning archery stuff the past few years.
