Pro fisherman-Stud Muffin 420 Report post Posted September 5, 2012 actually GMK inside arnones had some packages with scope for cheap like 400$,but a .308 for a 13year old?? id look at 243 or a 7mm-08 same case just smaller hole, less recoil. animals still just as dead Quote 2016 Dog Lake Open Champion.

CharlieAlphaLimaEcho 0 Report post Posted September 6, 2012 +1 on the 7mm-08. No lack of power for killing deer and black bear as it's basically a 308 necked down to take a 7mm bullet, with recoil equivalent to a 30-30. Took my buck last year at +/- 200 yards with a 7mm-08 savage, 140 grain Hornady GMX, complete pass-through. Hope this helps Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
