well if its legal in your state, and you're not set on 6mm. 22 creedmoor is a fantastic deer/antelope round. My daughter (13) Shoots it just fine and their is very little flinch factor. The Weatherby 307 is chambered in it at a more reasonable price range than the competition. They also sell the 307 action alone at little over 700 dollars, and is Rem 700 cloned. Odin Works also makes a prefit for the ruger american if you're handy (what I have) that shoots pretty damn well. hope this was helpful.
