Need help picking a rifle
zofoman:
When all else fails, go directly to the source for regulations: http://www.outdoornebraska.ne.gov/hunting/Guides_Regs.asp
Granted this is for 2014 season.
As for modern sporting rifle options (AR15/AR10), my suggestion would be to check out Palmetto State Armory and get on their email list for daily deals/specials. You can build what you want and save some bucks along the way. I've used their quality products and have not had any issues. Right now they have an AR15 clearance sale going on. http://palmettostatearmory.com/
Btw....AR15.com is the mecca of information site for that platform.
There are always the YouTube videos for reviews on firearms and how-to build your own. So much so, that it can become overwhelming if you let yourself be consumed with information overload.
IMHO, I'd suggest having a deer hunting only rifle and a shtf alternative...it's possible to do that within your budget if you take your time to shop around. Deer rifle/scope options come available all the time and some can be had reasonably, especially now that deer season is over...tough to beat a 30-06 for all-round big game hunting...ever consider elk hunting in your future? http://www.armslist.com/classifieds/nebraska/all/
Good luck in your quest...would be interested in hearing what you wind up with.

Amazingly, that says exactly what I said. (I'm a Hunter Education instructor.)

Thanks everyone. I'm a Newby when it comes to this rifle stuff. Funny how I shot 6th best out of everyone in boot camp (over 100 in my company). Elk hunting that's on my bucket list !

You'll want more firepower for elk.
