[QUOTE="jjmp, post: 2923476, member: 9664"] [I][B]while the 243 is great in a lever action I’d steer you to a Browning lever and not necessarily a new one,another rifle would be a Remington model 7 in 243 wcf= Winchester center fire ,never short stroke a lever action it can cause a jam,especially with older Winchesters . Scope for your lever action 243 Or bolt, I’d say don’t over scope it, a 2.5x8 is very nice and tough,I’m sure your going to be limited on Scope choices, get a good gunsmith to cut your stocks down ,maybe a ranch hand can do it on a good chopsaw, bandsaw, etc,etc.buy some one inch recoil pads same make and brand on all your rifles , once you know your length of pull make it the same on all your rifles . Many parents fail while trying to forc their children into jobs that they think are perfect,but there not they just look that way . I’m proud of you for what life changes you have made ,you go girl your doing wonderful 👏👏👏,cheers.[/B][/I] [/QUOTE]
