Hey all!
I really want to surprise my son this year with a rifle for Christmas. He'll be 8 in January. He's quite big for his age, being about 4'8" and weighs a few pounds under 120. Basically, he's an 8 year old in a 12 year old's body.
I was thinking that either a .243 or .260 would be a good choice. He's shot a few Yugo Mausers without too much trouble (stock too long). I was wondering if a Remington Model 700 Youth in .260 would most likely be a good fit for him?
