[QUOTE="Dr. Vette, post: 384128, member: 22335"] Wanna go cheap? and shoot LOTS as you mention? Buy a .22 that is set up similar to your big game rifle. With a .22 you shoot to 200 yards and it's like 800 on a big bore. And, much easier to find a 200 yard space than an 800 yard space. At least, it's what I do to learn. I have a .22 bolt action set up like my Weatherbys, and a nice Savage Mk II thumbhole bull barrel as well. Both of them teach me a lot and the barrels will last forever. Else I'd think .223 or 6mm if he wants to stay small and find a lot of support for the caliber. [/QUOTE]
