[QUOTE="Deer Slayer, post: 1284700, member: 8855"] I would suggest a .243 for the child with an 80 or 85 gr bullet. This Fall my son has buildt a .243 and custom loaded some 80 or 90 grain BT. The powder is the most accurate load and the most accurate OAL. He added a Leupold 3.5 X 10 X 40 VX-III. This gun will be used as the guest gun for this years OKla Youth Hunting & Shooting Program recipient 11 yr old hunter on his first deer hunt. I shoot many calibers but I feel that the .243 is the best caliber for a young hunter or a recoil sensitive person. [/QUOTE]
