Winchesters supposedly are hotter than othe standard primers but I have no actual proof of it. Just stuff I picked up over the years. Substituting a magnum for a standard is no big deal if you start the loads at the min and work up. You have been reloading long enough to know how to be careful.

My kids were around my guns since they can remember. When they would ask to see one we went to the safe and pulled out what they wanted. They started shooting BB guns around 4/5 and now the 8 yr old shoots 22's regularly and the 10 yr old has his own 223. My premise was to take the mystery out of guns, but not force them to shoot. We started safety rules early on.

My wife made me watch the first one and I was surprised how good it was.

A magnum may be the ticket depending on where you are in the load charge. Start at the bottom and work your way up. Slow burning powders do like more flame. What primers are you using? I do use trail boss and it is fun for target loads.

One of my lists of things to build is an AR in 6.5. For its size it is one of the best rounds out there. When it comes to ballistics 6.5's are underated by most people.

Really? use the right holster for the job and you are fine. Buy a retention holster and learn to use it. I bet you will draw quicker than trying to uncover your concealed holster. You repeatedly respond like an anti on situations you know nothing about.

Do you mean the kit to change it over to an AR style? If so I have a Nordic kit I could hook you up with.

For looks nothing beats a Colt Blued Revolver, but I have to agree with Griz. Not that I would turn down a good deal on a Python or a Trooper but I would chose a Smith over one anyday. And this is why there are multiple gun companies, something for everyone.

For $500 you should be looking at a 223 0r 243 if you want lighter recoil. A 22-250 or 308 if you want a bit more. Try a used Savage 110 or a new Stevens 200. Put a decent scope on it and you will be fine. It can be done for your budget. The next factor is how cheap do you want ammo to be? What you need do is fire a few and see what you like.
