I dont have or shot the caliber your talking bout.It sounds like to me you come from a hunting family so i would ask dad to let you advance to a higher caliber.maybe 270 or something like that.Im an old fashioned guy and the minimum cal is 30/30 most likely a marlin lever.Whatever you choose remember this .you are supposed to be confident in your abilities to kill the deer quickly and humanly.Remember the snipers motto "One shot one kill".I would approach dad and ask him to spend some time at the range together,you may not realize it now but in the distant future you'll look back as these times and be happy.Oh to be young again.excuse me i got a little hallmark/sappy on ya.But i'll say this I'll never forget the time my dad taught me how to shoot .It was like i joined some special club,.
