[QUOTE="USMCDI, post: 195689, member: 1557"] I picked up a used Kimber 84m Adirondack in 6.5 creed for my 13 year old, with a can, NF NXS 2.5-10x32mm the gun weighs in at 8 lbs and after a bedding job it hammers out to 600 with ease launching 130 ELD's at 2650fps. That is the lightest, most accurate rifle I've ever had and it doesn't throw you out of the scope but you have to concentrate which is harder for younger shooters, my sons bang steel all summer on my range but it's not necessary for most. We don't walk or push anything and only shoot a specific deer when or if they leave our "refuge" and in all reality I'm rooting for the deer all season and hope they make it another year. [/QUOTE]
