I am looking for a reasonable priced used bolt action 25-06 for my grandson to start deer hunting with.Nothing fancy or costly it does not need to be the best looking just one that shoots good.Thanks
I'd get the lad to the nearest gun store with a decent selection, & have him handle as many rifles as possible. I'm assuming he'll be new to shooting, since you said, "� start deer hunting�". As such, it'll will really help him out to have a rifle that fits him well. If budget is a concern, keep him confined to Savage, Ruger American, Stevens, Remington 783 (if you've got the constitution to try one), and Marlin. And go overboard on the hearing protection at the range: plugs
and ear muffs are a great thing for a new shooter.
FWIW, I've been impressed with the two Marlin X7's I've owned. No matter which rifle he likes best, though, posting a WTB in the classifieds here would likely net you a a few to consider.
Good Luck, & keep us posted on his success!
