Can't see any wisdom starting a young guy with a 300 or 7mm Mag as an only rifle... those are something you get "in addition" to a standard chambering like the 270 when you've mastered it.


I’d agree with that. Why teach him the art of flinch when he’s just starting? 30-06, 270, 308, will all do just fine. Today’s bullets do very well in these cartridges. No need for a 300 magnum.
