re: Rifle for 13 & 11 year old - Update page 5

Today my 11 year old went to rifle range while my oldest was helping uncle put out deer stands. At first my 11 year old didn't want to shoot the 30-30. Finally got him to and he did great especially with recoil pad and ear plugs. I think it is more the noise than kick.

Later that evening we did a group pig hunt but didn't see any. Went to rifle range with 13 year old to shoot. He first shot his uncle's 7mm Mag with Boss like a champ. Didn't even phase him and he was close to bulls eye. So he can easily handle the rifle. Decided on 7mm-08 and if he wants something more powerful than it will become his younger brother's gun and will buy him another.
