New rifle suggestions

Rifles aren't all that critical for most hunting. It literally doesn't matter for the most part. The scope and mount are much more critical, but you didn't ask about that. You won't go wrong at all with getting the Ruger Hawkeye.

My son shoot a Ruger Hawkeye SS in 3006, Loves it

Your sitting at a bench with a rest, it's not like your holding it up. More weight less recoil. You just want another gun right,, :pound:
Check these stocks out https://wooxstore.com/
Of course what gun enthusiast doesn't want another rifle.
You know he ain't goin hunting......
Oh yes I am! I have already scooped out my plot of land. It has deer sign everywhere. It's on the property of the 4 brothers I grew up with here. I have hunted that land since I was knee high to a snake. LOL
 
 
Well per many suggestions it looks like this is at the top of the leader board so far.

Getting it shipped off here if he would even consider it wouldn't be cost-effective it cost at least a hundred bucks with insurance to ship something like that from party to FFL.

I built a Howa 1500 Barreled action I a Boyd's stock but I ordered the #6 contour barrel in 6.5 PRC but it weighs a freaking ton. It's well over 12 lbs. with optic. I want a lighter rifle for hunting and I want to spend my 1300 dollars on something with substance.

Well per many suggestions it looks like this is at the top of the leader board so far.
