What would you pick for a pre-teen girl and boy to get into deer/predator hunting before they can fit a larger stocked rifle?
So far, here are a couple combos that I'm thinking about but welcome anything else from you guys that have been there, done that!
6.8 SPC, 243, or 260 Ruger Compact (12.5" LOP, 16.5" barrel
- concerned about muzzle blast outside of 6.8 option)
Remington 700 SPS Youth 243 (12.3" LOP, 20" barrel)
243, 6.5x55, or 260 Encore (own 2 frames) cut down barrel to 20" and cut down and size stock to custom fit and LOP
Your experience, suggestions please
