[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1436328, member: 2736"] The SAUM would be the most powerful of your choices, but that may not be the best choice for your son. My vote would be the 7/08 (No surprise to some) or the 7/08 AI for a little more power and performance (100 to 150 ft/sec more velocity). If you like the 7/08 but want a 6.5, the 260 rem would be another choice. I have a 260 AI that will push a 140 grain bullet 3000 + with little effort making it a potent 6.5 in a small package. also the 260 or the 7/08 can be made from 308 cases if you can't find the brass for the 260 or 7/08. Although brass for ether is not a problem at this time. The 6.5 CM is very popular at this time and is yet another possibility. Velocity isn't that important to me as long as the performance is where it needs to be for its intended use. as in anything, there is always a more powerful cartridge to be had but choosing the right one for it's use is more important IMO.
