suggestions on full size rifle for my teenager
#31
So, my son has been using a youth model .243 for the last 4 years.
He is now 15, will be 16 by next deer season and really wants a full size rifle for Christmas.... I'm a big fan of a .270 but was looking for some suggestions from you all on caliber for a 16 year old, Ideally, this will be his first full size rifle and one I would like him to be able to use for years to come... He has killed 3 deer with his .243 and its been a good round, just thinking he should have something a little bit hotter, but not too big, that's how I came up with .270, but would love to hear opinions on calibers for teenagers and you all are doing... thanks!
