Thinking of picking up a Handi youth in .243 for my daughter.
She's 5'3', 105#, and not particulary recoil sensitive, although she is thin armed,and weight is sometimes a problem.
Anyway, had my mind set on the 243 youth, until I started hearing all the horror stories, about the Handi in .243 being more problematic than other calibers, and recent fit/finish problems with newer Handis.
I have an older, bull-barelled .223 that, after some tinkering, I am VERY happy with.
We're taking her out after antelope this fall,so I need to get moving NOW!
Any ideas,thoughts,or suggestions?
Also, can I buy and add a youth stock to a full sized Handi? I do not see them listed on their website.
A buddy MAY sell his full sized 7/08, so that is another option I am considering.
Thanks, Dave
