Caliber for son's first deer rifle?
I am getting ready to buy my son his first deer rifle. He just turned twelve and I am not sure what caliber to look for. We do our hunting in Northern Kansas and most shots are probably around 100 to 200 yards. I am hoping that I can get a decent quality gun for somewhere around 200 to 300 dollars. I figure that in a few years when he gets bigger he may want to move up to a larger caliber so I didn't plan to spend a lot on the first one. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
