[QUOTE="Alfred Crouch, post: 267137, member: 13464"] you did not say what you were shooting. If it is deer size game and down (along withn an occasional Elk hunt) I would look into a 260 or 7-08 instead of the 06. Both will effectively reach out quiet a ways without the recoil of the 06. Starting a new hunter off with an 06 will likely cause him to develope a bad case of fliching when firing the gun. That being said ... if he is a 6 ft. 2 inch 240 pound weight lifter you can ignor what I just said .... the recoil will not bother him. [/QUOTE]
