[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 210594, member: 2736"] Steve Had you though about the 260 Remingtion ? It is a 7/08 necked down to 6.5mm and would have less recoil than the 6.5/06. And would be good for 500yrds +. Loading is easy + it is a factory round (not a wildcat). Best bullets would be 100grs to 120grs around 3000 ft/sec. A short action and a 20" to 22" barrel in a #4 taper would be ideal for a youngster. Just a though J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
