    Thanks for the warm welcome and for the help.

    I should get a .308, but that would mean the old guy is right...

    Or you could look at it this way - if you get a 308 and shoot better than the old man he'll have no excuses...

    Well, i have a 72yo who learn quiet few things from a "newer" fallow. LOL!
    We "old buggers" are almost always right.
    Any of the calibers we have will do damage and kill any game around, so as said before, try before you buy if possible and them choose what make you comfortable.
