Totally agree with FF. Either the Mossberg or the Stevens would be a great choice. Both shoot well and come in a variety of calibers. They are also cheap enough that you can spend the money that you save on a good scope. As far as calibers- since you are not use to shooting a rifle I would go with a 270. That will allow you to spend more time at the range learning your gun rather than at home nursing a sore shoulder. The 30-06 is a great choise but it does have a good kick to it and since deer season is just around the corner the last thing you want is to worry about your sore shoulder when you get a shot at a deer. Just my .02.
