RE: Kids first gun
i think a good caliber would be 220 i shot one when i was 7 it didn' t have much recoil. there a good all around gun . ive hunted ground hogs up to 300 yards whith deadly accuracy. i hunted deer with it it would bring a deer down in its tracks if hit right. its a good light recoil gun that could used for target or hunting [good luck]
