So, since I'm fairly decided on a pistol (gonna try a .45ACP gun soon to see if recoil will be a problem), I've started looking at rifles (bad idea, I know..)  The more I look, the more interested in <a href="http://www.6mmbr.com/243Win.html">.243 Win/.243 AI</a> for an adequate mix of punch and accuracy, should I decide to either get into match shooting or hunting (which I may - I mean, hey, not only local food, but I did it myself :oP), though I'm not discounting the various .30 caliber rounds.  The question on my mind is what to get, though.  Part of me would really like a falling-block style single-shot, but another part thinks a bolt action would be perfectly adequate.

This is all rambling, of course.  If I do get a centerfire rifle before 2009, it'll be a surplus gun, unless I come across an incredible deal somewhere.  I plan on waiting mostly to make more money :3
