I personally feel that if they can afford to go on an elk hunt, they could afford a youth model 30.06. That would be the best for the kid.
***No problem! My opening sentence was just a statement and not directed at you, but I did think your question about energy was addressed to me and I could see you were basically agreeing when you said you wouldn't use a 30-30. I also agree with your comment if they were buying a gun for the kid, but since the OP said he was grouping the 30-06 so well that he let him use, I felt that was good enough for the time being to get him by on the planned hunt.
