A few years back I gave my youngest grandson

A pristine, early Ruger Model 77 Lightweight chambered in .308 with a Weaver 4X mounted. The first time he went out to shoot with his friends they told him the gun was too small and the scope needed to be a high-power variable. I told him to go back and tell them that particular combination will certainly handle, easily handle anything that walks in the lower 48 for sure. "Okay Papa" and that was the last we ever heard on the subject. There isn't much worth doing that cannot be handled with this combination. I gave two of my other grandsons Ruger American .270s similarly scoped and another grandson wanted to go a different route chose a lever action .44 Magnum. My son-in-law's rifle is a Ruger American .243 and it does everything he needs it to do.
