[QUOTE="Vaughng, post: 1909765, member: 114076"] Ruger is every bit as good as any Model 70 and they make a left handed action. Buy the Lad the right rifle from the start PS I live in Australia and I have a Ruger Mk 2 in 308 W it is a tack driver but it has a heavy target barrel I am looking to purchase a Classic model 70 to build a 6.5 06 AI as my last ever build. One thing to watch is the early Mk 2 they had a lousy trigger, I believe they have a reasonable trigger on the later models. Ruger has the best scope mounting system ever devised in my opinion. If You are building up a rifle consider the 6.5 creedmore on a long action and as the boy grows and can handle the next step of recoil he can rechamber it to 6.5 /06 or equivilent. I regard the 6.5 creedmoor as just a 250 savage using specialist projectiles Thank you for bringing up good Children we need more parents like you, Vaughn Gunthorpe Plainland Australia [/QUOTE]
