RE: Caliber for young shooters?
My 12 y/o shoots a rem 700 youth in 243. he has killed two bucks this year with it. one ran oh 40 yards maybe ,.
Now how many experts on here have taken two bucks this year???
yeah he can shoot my model seven in 308 , but the recoil makes him a poor shot. he has shot many other rifles but he can shoot the 243 better than most adults can shoot. so let him shoot the one he is most comfortable with. i will promise you it will put venison in your freezer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!
