Ok deer campers, my oldest boy 10 is a lever gun nut.
He has a Ruger ultralight in .257 Roberts with a leupold 2x7. This gun is a nice fun little rig but he really wants a lever gun.
What are your thoughts, we hunt everything from thick brush to open fields. Last year my then 8 year old took his first deer at 300 yards.
I really do not want a .30-30 or anything Winchester (just due to the safety issues)but this kid passed up 5 deer last year and went without filling a tag. This was due to cars, the rain, lighting etc. he really earned his stripes by showing responsibility to the shot.
Anyway I thought this would be a good place to discuss it.
