I almost threw up when he told me what he sold it for. It was in pristine condition too.
My opinion would that the 30-06 is a great round, but the 270 would probly be better for a kid. The 270 win pushing a 130 grain bullet is an outstanding round, crushes deer and is outstandingly accurate. The 06 pushing the 150 isn't bad, but I think it likes 165s better for accuracy. I will say that I haven't worked an 06 much though. Faxis needs to weigh in. He has a hot little 120gr round he loves, but you would have to reload.

Damn, I cried a little just then. I gave over twice that for mine, but it's an accurate mofo.
The biggest problem I would see with the 06 for a 13 year old is target practice. The one shot it would take to down a deer would be fine, however it would be the several boxes he should shoot to get used to the gun that could cause a problem. Well that's my opinion on the matter.
