[QUOTE="Ian B, post: 494893, member: 20737"] I am going to be honest with you The .338 mags like the laupa and edge are in no way shape or form a good round for you for a lot of reasons. They are really expensive to shoot they have way to much recoil for a beginner and are in general pretty big guns. The edge is more for someone who know the ins and outs of reloading to its not something you can just go to the store and buy and its not something to tinker with if have never reloaded before its dangerous for you to try. You should start out with a .22 LR learn the basics of marksmanship and work your way in to full sized rifle rounds that are common and cheap like .308 .243 with those you can start steeping up the ranges and you can begin to learn how to adjust your scope and read the wind make range cards and even learn on to reload. Most every one here learned how to shoot growing up myself included with .22s then deer rifles no one here learned how to shoot on big .338 mags. LRH is not Something for someone who has never shot a gun before it takes alot of practices and time to be able to develop your skills to the point where one has the confidence to take a shot at an animal at 1000+ yards let alone even hit something that far away regardless of the equipment you are using.
