First off, I am a new member and this is my first post.
I have done some research on the net here in my attempt to find the answers to my questions which have lead me more confused and puzzled than satisfied.
I really don't know much at all about rifles and scope so please bear with me here.
I am looking for a small calibre rifle for varmint (gopher, skunk) and coyote shooting. Over the last few weeks, many of the reviews I have come across suggest a Savage 12 BVSS in a 22-250 with a 50 grain bullet (Barnes VLC or Berger & Hornady) for speed and accuracy. As for a scope, I have read that the Bushnell Elite 3200 and 4200 would be great matches with this rifle.
I am located in Saskatchewan, Canada and we have more than our fair share of gophers and coyotes up here.
I would like something capable of 1/2" groupings and 250-300 yards.
I am looking for any and all other suggestions for both rifle and scopes because as I mentioned, I do not know much at all about these topics... yet
Thank you
