I currently hunt with an older 94 Winchester in 30/30 and a Nikon Buckmaster 3x9x40 scope. It's a great 100 yard and less gun and I am looking to add another rifle to my working guns that can reach out to several hundred more yards and still harvest game quickly and ethically. What would you recommend? I want something that I can practice with a lot throughout the year and prefer something that doesn't beat my shoulder to death. I had a nice Remington 700 in 7 Mag a few years back that I wish I hadn't traded off. It wasn't too bad on recoil, but after a box and a half or so at the range, it started to hurt a bit.
