I just got my firearms license and I am looking to buy a rifle or shotgun.

I'm leaning towards the Russian SKS because it is so damn cheap ($200 CAD) and rounds go for $0.30.

Money isn't that big of an issue so I could pull out the CC and invest in a Benelli Supernova. This would run me up to $680-800 $:-\$ shells are also quite expensive.

Thoughts?

AK's are over 2x the price, is it worth it?? Plus it's prohibited in Canada

. That means I can only take it to the range and it's a hastle to transport

I also liked the Remington 700, the round it uses looks like a lot of fun

I'm a student so keep in mind this is like buying a car for me, huge deal!!

Would you recommend the SKS or Remington 700??

That looks sweet! The 700 is seriously powerful so maybe its worth the extra 500.

I'll have to go to the store and get a feel for both the guns

If money is not an issue why would you buy an SKS? It's a cheap rifle that was a precursor to the AK used by third world cannon fodder that couldn't get a hold of an AK.

Listen to Bench, the Rem 700 all the way.
