[QUOTE="ohiohunter, post: 1255428, member: 55230"] Both are great options, but it doesn't sound like you reload so I would opt for the more popular 308 pushing 180gr bullets. Like federal premium 180gr nosler partitions. Depending on your boy's size and stature you may want to get him behind a bigger gun and see if he tolerates the recoil. I'll let you be the judge of whether or not thats a good idea, otherwise stay on the current path. One big question, does he shoulder your 22-250 well? and is it a standard length of pull? If he does then you'll be way better off getting him straight into the big boy game instead of dealing with youth sized stocks. What is your budget for this project? [/QUOTE]
