[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 119969, member: 2736"] Bcraft JD is dead on. The 7-08 is one of the finest deer cartriges in the world. Use the 120gr ballistic tip loaded to about 2800ftps, Try about 47gr of H414 (higer velocity/lower presure) The 140gr has to much muzzle flash and felt recoil for youth,s. If you want to by him a first rifle the 7-08 would be hard to beat. You could even look at a 700 rem sa varmint in 7-08 and have someone shorten the barrel & stock to fit. Find an old stock to cut down and save the standard stock for later as he grows. The 7-08 is not a wimp I have taken 400lb hogs ,300lb+ axis and a lot of dear with one shot kills.
