[QUOTE="JASmith, post: 2140657, member: 24844"] A lot depends on what your neighbor already shoots and what hunting he plans to do. If he is new to the business, then a light-recoiling rifle and cartridge combination makes more sense than something he will be sure smashes his shoulder with every trigger pull. The 6.5 caliber gets a good balance for hunting under 600 yards. If light weight and recoil are both important, then the 6.5 Grendel on a Howa Mini will do very well. Going with the Creedmore on a Savage will add some range at the expense of greater weight and recoil. [/QUOTE]
