have you bought the .270 yet?
I remember being that age and i swear that .270 kicked like an ultra mag!
I think a .243 or 7mm-08 is the perfect young person's caliber.
I also am no longer a fan of muzzle breaks, but for a kid I could see the benefit, just wear hearing protection!
Of course nowadays they have those reduced recoil loads for the .270win shooting like 110gr bullets.
