[QUOTE="msalm, post: 835377, member: 8863"] If you're truly looking for light recoil for smaller/younger shooters with performance good enough for elk (better than 243) then it's right at 6.5mm. 6.5X47 Lapua, 6.5 Creed, 260 Rem. Couldn't get a better round for a young shooter. Can you tell I'm jaded on the .270???:):) Can't stand it and never could. Only rifle I ever built I couldn't get to shoot...to be honest it was completely the barrel, but it just left a sour taste. Never built another one and stored all my 270 bullets. Anyone interested I have a box somewhere with dies, brass and bullets (lots of bullets) that I can guarentee I will never use. [/QUOTE]
