[QUOTE="Billboy, post: 5808655, member: 5154"] My daughter started with a model 7 243 when she was a 10yo beanpole. Even though the recoil was minimal, the muzzle blast kinda scared her. We never practiced with the 243, but shot her 22lr alot. When a deer shows up and the adrenaline is pumping, the 243 recoil/blast was never noticed. That said, a 6.5 anything with a 120-140gr bullet will work perfectly well for kid or adult. The recoil on my 6.5 PRC shooting 140's is minimal and it is a fairly light rifle with no brake. [/QUOTE]
