I think for a first gun the 308 Win is a awesome choice. It is inherently accurate, nice short action, lots of bullet choices, ususally redily available ammo if you go store bought, easy to reload and not a powder hog if you roll your own, managable recoil for the first time shooter.
Well said. I started hunting with my grandfathers 308 win and took many of my first animals with it. It is a beautiful Husky, and brings back many memories every time I look at it.
