110 is the only way to go for 300blk in regards to whitetail. With anything lighter, you have too little velocity, too much drop, and not enough energy past 200 yards

I agree with Carson. 5.56 is a bit weak for deer even though it can be done. This topic has been discussed ad nauseum at many points on this board.

My personal favorite for deer is an AR10. I have plans to buy a S&W M&P10 sometime down the road since 308 is so ideal for them. Plus the semi auto nature of the rifle makes the recoil impulse softer since some of the energy from the round is transferred to the bolt as it moves rearward.

If you're worried about your kid getting afraid of recoil you can always put a muzzle device on a larger rifle. Your ears may hate you but your kid's shoulder won't mind.
