Need some solid dad advice from experienced hunter dads

Hi Guys,

Many moons have passed since this thread was created, the kids have grown, and the hunts have accumulated.

my daughter who is now 11 still loves her pre-64 model 70 in .243 Win with a 1-4x Schmidt and Bender scope. She took a black bear with it when she was 8 and both she and her younger siblings have taken many deer with it out to about 240 yards, along with red deer and other creatures.

her younger brother is now 9 and he has a custom 7x64 with a Swarovski 3-9x33 optic on it. He loves his gun and has taken record book pronghorn and oryx with it along with many deer.

the youngest will soon pass hunter’s Ed and we’ll have to decide what he gets shortly.

Do you mind me asking what auction you are referencing? I'm not in the market for any of those rifles...just curious.
