2 bored males in our house, some nice weather and a wife free zone. Take the old 22 put the scope as far back as it goes (not far enough but it'll do) Move the car 20yards from a backstop in the yard and check the rifle is still approximately zeroed.

Son shoots a milk jug with water, some animal targets then shoots a 5 shot group.

I checked for flinching throughout and hoped he might have got some on the target......words failed followed by huge whooping (from Dad)

Seems like the lad is taking after his Dad, eh... Who wore the widest grin, you or your son??

Good shooting Lad, squeeze that trigger!

Dang Nice Shooting. I think i know who had the
biggest grin.

Damn, that is good to see. I'm guessing you are pretty happy about now!

Tell him, the 'grownups' on the forum are all wishing they could do as well!

Yup he just thinks it's normal for an 8year old to shoot like that first time out! He was apologetic for not getting the bullseye.

The most fun I've had shooting was with dad and a .22lr around 6-10 years of age and again with my son's and a .22lr.

Enjoy your son and take him shootin'

Great shooting, I hope my lads up to that in a few years when he reaches the age he can hold my .22RF.

1894,

I think he's shown you that you need to give the scope a click to the right!!! Nothing wri=ong with that huh!!!!

I can only imagine how proud you are. Well done.
