[QUOTE="John O'Neill, post: 3787018, member: 9603"] I had the same concern with weight in the store for the Mossberg and the Remmington for my 9yo daughter. I knew she'd have 6-8 months to get stronger so we got the Remington. I let her pick it up and practice 3-4 times a week and after 3-4 weeks she was tracking tennis balls I'd through in the back yard and not having any difficulties. She'll be using it with slugs during the juvenile hunt. My only personal experience with the Rossi single shots in .243 wasn't impressive. It may have been the Basra optics that came with the rifle. But my 12 yo nephew was shooting one and couldn't get it to group in the black at 50 yards. I figured it was his inexperience so I gave it a try. It was too small for me, and I'm sure that had some effect, but I couldn't get better than an inch and a half at 50 yards. I know that individual results vary, but based on that I wouldn't buy the Rossi. [/QUOTE]
