[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2417377, member: 30902"] The .243 will give the kid far more versatility. Pick a wood stock. Remove the butt plate. Drill dowel holes from the rear forward 6-8" deep. Take gun and kid to a good gunsmith/stock smith, measure and cut. Put a new pad on and go. Save cut off portion. When kids is ready for a full sized stock go back to GS/SS and have the part removed put back in. Just a little sanding and securing with glued dowels and the kid is fixed for a lifetime of shooting.
