[QUOTE="Shinneryfarmer, post: 3462841, member: 46291"] I set my grandson up who is also a 10 yr old with a Savage axis in 243. Worked well for him took his first deer during a youth hunt. If recoil is a issue there is data out there if you reload using pistol powder. My SIL loaded the 243 with hot factory ammo for his first time shooting. After picking himself up off the ground a few times he developed a flinch. ( I was pissed) Took me awhile to break that, with light loads teaching proper basics. After a few sessions I could slip hotter loads in it and he never noticed. [/QUOTE]
