.243 for Hogs?
I tried my son out on the .06. He's not liking it. He's about to turn 12. Plus, although he's a big kid, the rifle is too long for him. Outstanding!! Why? Now I get to go buy another rifle. I was thinking about a Savage Model 11FYXP3 Youth in .243.We will be mostly huntinghogsfor the next year and a half. Then he will be old enough for deer also. I know the .243 is morethan adequate for deer, but what do you guys think about using it on hogs?Also, what do you think about this particular weapon? Any other suggestions with comparable price?
