To all Vets and LEOs, thanks for what you do. So I have a Savage Stevens Model 200 chambered in .270 with nothing on it, not even iron sights. I also have a girlfriend who is new to rifles. I was 11B and 31B but have very little experience using glass. I’m not asking for recommendations for better rifles to use. I am simply asking what an inexpensive yet ideal setup would be to start her on this rifle. I’m referring to power and brand of scope (under $200 for her first one hopefully), rings/mounts, bipods and any other furniture which would be helpful for a first-timer. I understand it’s always best to start with iron sights but I have a different rifle to use for that. The purpose of this rifle is strictly target shooting at distances out to probably 600 yards at the furthest. She has plenty of pistol experience and has fired shotguns before but nothing on the long guns. Any advice from Savage owners, .270 owners or shooters in general would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.
