Thank you. I am not familiar with the quality of their firearms. What else can you tell me about them? All my knowledge about hunting and rifles has come from talking to friends and family and reading info on the gun websites.

I also should mention I want a rifle that is reasonable to buy ammo for and/or reasonably priced to reload, if that makes a difference in recommendations.

I had one years ago... bought it in Texas back in 1973. The recoil from that rifle is not the problem... it is the 15 minutes that the recoil takes to die off that I found objectionable. I do not think that a mule could kick any harder. I find the .50 Barrett to be far more comfortable to shoot.
