[QUOTE="angus-5024, post: 379315, member: 10306"] Congrats on selling your house! Thats pretty exciting. As far as what calibers, I would go with a 6mm of some sort. I personally like the .243win for decent barrel life and good performance. A 7mm (probably 7mmRem/280) becuase of good bullet selction and great ballistics and the perfect size for deer. The .243 will be a great starter rifle for your son, and eventually he can graduate to the 7mm. And then to top the list a .338; RUM, EDGE, LAPUA. The list stops there becuase I feel like most bigger cartriges are too hard on barrels. 8mm Rem are cool too, but a definate lack of bullet selection. [/QUOTE]
