I am a certified hunter ed. instructor and have shot most of the firearms mentioned above.....own several of them. All are good guns. It boils down to personal preference. Your choice of caliber for your son's deer hunting is a good one. Once you decide.....make sure he practices, practices, practices. When he's done practicing.....have him practice some more. If he takes the time to practice....he'll get that deer with one clean shot and you will be one proud papa. Nice to see some young hunter's coming up. Happy shopping and hunting!
