my little brother (12) says he wants to learn how to shoot in precision comps. he is not new to shooting. he has been hunting with a 7mm-08 since he was 9. he wants to start out and learn with his 22lr. its a cz 452 lux model. it currently has a bushnell 1x4 on it. i was thinking that he should get something like a falcon menace 4.5-18 so that he can learn with it and move it to a different gun later. do you guys think this would be a good idea?
 
Re: scope application question

Falcon Menace in 4-14 or 4.5-18 would be good choices, get him a FFP and mil/mil scope. If he practices and learns that system well for a few years he'll be leaps and bounds above most other shooters.
