What caliber rifles has your son been shooting. A bud of mine just went out and bought his boy a 270 with factory 150gr bullets and never gave any thought to his son's previous shooting experience. Sure a 7mm-08 is a lighter recoiling rifle round, but some fellas make it sound like its hardly much of a step up from 223. A hard rifle to locate perhaps but a 257 Roberts or a 250 Savage are much easier for a beginner to shoot. IMHO. FS
