Photos The .22 and .17 don't cut it any longer...

[Brians708]

After a few years of playing with rim fire my 10 yr old daughter wanted to graduate into something more.

Friday morning she shot the Rem 5R in .223 at the 100yr range from the bench. After a few fam fire shots she held 2 ea. 1" - 5 shot groups.

Saturday she went prone shooting pigs (steel silhouettes) at 300M and Rams at 500m. She was about 90%.
She also rocked the 24" Colt AR on the Rams at 500M, 7 out of 8!

You must be very proud of your daughter. I am waiting for mine to be just a bit older to do the same thing.

Rose, negative- There is a 5 yr old right behind her that will be "training-up".

Wil, it was easy, I was just following your vapor trail bro!

I thought the art of teaching a child to do any thing outdoors had been lost to video games, computers and Ipods
She shows there is still hope... Congrats to the both of you.
