Not wanting to break the bank, I need your opinions on a couple of youth guns. My two girls, age 9 and 7, both small framed, have shot their 22 crickets all summer. Both took deer on the youth hunt last week end with my encore 243, how ever the LOP is way to long, and they have to put it under their arm. I thought about buying another stock, cutting it down, but really dont care about changing it back and forth since I hunt with it myself. What about the Rossie combo kits, 243, 22lr, 20 ga, or the HR youth handi rifle in the compact model. Also, I've given thought to the 223 in either of these due to lack of recoil, but dont know how effective this would be on deer. As they grow I'll let them move up to the encore. Any thoughts. Thanks
