The one I shot was suppressed. I'm a recoil shy pussy...hence my 243 but it's made me more accurate since I shoot it more! That's also a fair point in this discussion mate, my 12 is only mildly...

BRADS got my mate his first deer with an edge. Soft to shoot and 300gr berger at 2800+fps is pure goodness. Not sure how soft they are suppressed though

Actually, I took my first stag with a .338 edge. I was pleasantly surprised by how nice it was to shoot!!

I'm kinda with peril on this except I'd go a 300 blackout 16" barrel Ruger ranch like I have. Zero kick good knockdown with the 308 sized Pill and a surpressor and you have a rifle for now as a...

Which ever you go for put a can on it I think the 7-08 is the better option if you don't reload. This is the way I went with my son after starting out with a .223. Sent from my SM-G900I using...

All I say is go easy, create a flinch and it could ruin his shooting. My 12 yr old has shot a couple of Dee eith my suppressed 284, but that boots about same as 708 Sent from my E5823 using...

If you want a .270, check out the one I put up on the forum tonight, best value for money in NZ right now, by a long way.

7-08 or 243 7-08 would be my choice if not reloading...the 243 with 95 he Targex goes good

Where are you from Oraki? If I could get it to you conveniently or hook up with you I've got a nice little suppressed 243 he could try to see what he thinks of it. Its not for sale, but it would give...

Same as Tahr suggested from me, I've got a couple of 7.62x39's he can try out. Short barrel suppressed or standard.

I reckon with a suppressor on, all of the above calibres (other than .338 Edge) would feel the same recoil-wise, and none of them would be an issue even for the recoil shy. I'm a pussy when it comes...
