Best budget .243

[Steel4sam]

My daughter is 11, I’m looking for a great .243 for her, I’d like threaded and compact. Looking between ruger American gen II and the savage axis pro. Does anyone have any experience?

If you’re looking for a great 243 I’d look at Tikka I think all of their rifles are going to be threaded going forward. The tikka is a much better rifle than the axis, I haven’t been around the ruger American to much.

My Mauser M18 outshoots my Tikka (both in .243) and was very inexpensive.

Eurooptics deals on the Sauer 100 has gotten fantastic reviews as well
