What is a good recommendation for a rifle. Good price range.

you can get a real, real nice used rifle in a plethora of calibers (yes, I said plethora). You can go with the old stand by 30.06 or .308 or you can go with a more "exotic" caliber like a 270 or a 300 WSM, both a great hunting rounds. You can go 7mm, that's a heck of a round too. You can go big with a .338. There's all sorts of options. If cost is an issue a more traditional round like .30.06 is probably best.
