First deer rifle

[Austin]

Just finished putting my sons first deer rifle together. Just got to work up some loads now.

Started life as a Howa mini action (barreled action only) in 6.5 Grendel searched most of the summer for a good youth stock and finally found Boyd’s offered one in 12 3/4 length of pull that came in over the weekend and got it all fitted up.

Hope to get him on some pigs this year and a deer next

I’d be proud to hunt with that gun ! Looks awesome !

Great looking setup, should make lots of good memories.

Your a good Dad ...Those Howa are known for accuracy.
Should be piling up the pigs soon.

If it shoots anything like my .223 it should make cloverleafs at 100

If only they made a lefty!!! I cant think of a better gun to start a young one with, but my oldest grandson is a lefty. Probably tune him up with my AR as a single shot next year.

Lever gun is always a good option.

OP, great looking rifle. When he outgrows that stock, y’all can buy a full sized one and bed/fit it together. Then he’ll still have a capable deer gun.

Yes that is the plan it can grow with him just by replacing the stock.

Fortunately my son is right handed while I am left. I grew up with no other option than to learn how to shoot a right handed rifle.
