[QUOTE="HOSS, post: 305666, member: 1863"] I started deer hunting when I was 7. I had a Remington 742 Woodmaster in 6mm Remington caliber (still have it).Even though it was semi-automatic my Dad would only allow me to put one shell in until I was about 9 or 10. By that time I was hunting on my own. I bought my son a Remington Model 7 when he was 9 years old. It is chambered for 7mm-08 and he has had no problem at all with recoil. He has taken a deer every year with it since he has had it. The Model 7 is built for a youth. The one I bought has an 18" barrel. It is a gun that shoots so well and feels so good that I hunt with it every chance I get. It is a pretty gun also with classic Remington lines. It is a "lifetime" gun. It will still appeal to your child when he / she becomes an adult. My advice is to not skimp on quality. Part of the experience of deer hunting that will keep your kids coming back is making sure they have every chance possible at success. Part of that is having a dependable, accurate firearm. [/QUOTE]
