[QUOTE="txaggie1, post: 2941740, member: 113838"] For me and my kids shot 22-250's but we have really small deer and hogs here in central texas ranging 80-120lbs live weight. But - i've kept a 243, 250 savage (love this one), 22-250's, 240 weatherbys, 6mm rem (couple of these), 25-06, 257 roberts for starters. We have 6 kids with first granddaughter OTW. My thought was baby steps - plenty of 6.5 options that are worthy, but recoil and noise is a subjective thing and well lets face it kids today didn't grow up like we did and the generation before us - you might have one tough as nails or not. Only you know that - but sticking with 6mm class and I see I left out 243, perfect contender as well, just don't own one you can see i own many others - lol or some 25 calibers would make a fine hunting rifle for a youngster! Good luck [/QUOTE]
