Ok guys, I need your help. I have a daughter who is 7 and she has good size to her. She is one of the biggest in her 1st grade class and I'm looking at the 7mm-08 for her. Stevens and Legacy both make youth models in a 7mm-08. Now she's already killed deer with a 223 and a 243. Suprisingly the buck she shot with the 223 dropped dead in its tracks and both does ran with good hits with the 243. She knows where to put the bullet, I just really think I need a bigger bullet. I went through this with my son and a 308 cured the problem. I'm scared that the 260 is going to be obsolete because it never really took off like I thought it would. Walmart here doesnt even carry the ammo here anymore. Managed recoil loads are out of the question because I just dont like the ballistics. Do any of you know anything about those little Stevens or Legacy rifles? Maybe some of you guys have some ideas that have worked well for your kids. Let me know what you think. Thanks!!!!
