[QUOTE="LY, post: 526658, member: 1765"] Shot two with one so far, first dropped in his tracks and the second ran 20 yards. Mine's a Model 7 and I feel like it kicks quite abit harder than my .243. It's not that it kicks all that hard, but just a good bit more than my .243. I'd question a young, new shooter handling one without developing some sort of 'fear' of it. After shooting a .243 or maybe a .260 some, then I'd think they'd be alright. I'm just leary of letting my soon to be 10yr old daughter shoot mine too soon. She killed her first deer a month ago with a .243 and on her own and out of the blue said she "..didn't even feel it". This was several days after complaining about shooting a .223 off a bench at the range. Otherwise it's my favorite cartridge to hunt with. [/QUOTE]
