I missed out on Cutem’s Ruger the other day. Looking for something similar. Just a simple no-frills straight shooter…Something that a preteen/teen can tote around the woods without me being worried about a pricey rifle. Prefer .308 but will consider other calibers. Prefer gun/scope ready to go. In OXR but willing to drive a fair distance and pay fair price for the right deal.

WYG?

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

I've got a safe queen Savage model 11 243 with less than 10 rounds through it. Its a blued/synthetic gun. I have a Tasco World Class 3-9x50 or a Vortex 4-12x44 that can be put on it. Have some ammo for too. Pm me if you are interested.

I have two savage axis youth guns myself. I like them pretty good. Probably the best value out there for the money

FWIW, if you come across a Remington 783 I’ve been real pleased with mine. It’s rough but it’ll flat drive tacks at the range. Mines in 30-06.

Did you do the YouTube trigger job on em JW? It makes a world of difference. PM me if you need help with it.

I have not. I guess i dont own but one gun with a easy trigger. I was checking our rifles the other day and my weatherby vanguard kinda scared me. It has a way more touchy trigger than the rest of them. Ive gotten used to a stiff trigger and it seemed to go off as soon as i touched it, hair trigger kind of deal. It has an aftermarket trigger. You can send me a link and i will look in to it. I wouldnt mind turning them down a little.

I’ve got a 783 in .308. Best $250 I’ve spent in 40+ years of wasting money on hunting stuff. This ugly cheap thing kills deer.

Another vote for the Savage Axis youth. Mine has the trigger job, cost $25, took 30 mins. Really nice! Scope on it is so-so, but enough for my 10 year old.

Also, the Mossberg Patriot youth (same price range) and the Ruger American (a little more $$) are good options.

The kit doesn't make it touchy, reduces the pull down to about 3.5lbs. More importantly, it provides a nice 'wall' after the break. Feels really crisp.

You never touch the sear, so safety is never in question. I dropped the butt of mine on the floor from about 18" several times, just to be sure the firing pin wouldn't slip. Solid as a rock...

I also have a youth axis in 7mm-08. I would like the link to do the trigger job. Thanks in advance.
