I was thinking today about some good, small-caliber deer rounds for beginners (light recoil, low purchase price, cheap ammo, utility for certain small game/varmint shooting). What do you think of these options in a single-shot, lever-action or a cheap bolt-action:
.243
.30-30
.357 Magnum (.38 special for practice, plinking)
Also, which action:
break-action
Levergun
Bolt-action
BTW, this is prompted by a hunter safety course I'm taking (felt like a safety refresher couldn't hurt anything, and there is free coffee, haha), and there's all these small kids I wouldn't want to hand a 300 Win Mag to.
