[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 514581, member: 24624"] What country do you live in? My son is average size or below for his age. He's been shooting a Sendero 7mm Rem Mag since he was 14. He shot a box or so just fine when it was new. Then I added a brake and he really enjoys shooting it now. 60-100 shots in a day is no problem. If you stay with 7mm Rem Mag or below, about 3000 ft-lbs at the muzzle, you won't have any problems. ...especially if you get a brake. The Savage 111LRH has sufficient weight plus a brake already installed. Recoil is the least of your problems. Stay away from featherweight rifles and you'll be fine. You need to look for a cartridge that meets your ballistic requirements the rest will fall into place. You also need a shooting partner or somewhere to get lessons? -- richard [/QUOTE]
