[QUOTE="ShootnMathews, post: 2826459, member: 59915"] Many of you saw the threads I posted when I was shopping for a rifle and a scope to train my boy with. Now granted he is not new to firearms. I’ve had him shooting since he was 3, but in the last year he has taken to instruction extremely well. Today I set up a 4”, 3”, 2”, and a 1” gong at 50 yards and I expected to start him with 4” and work down. Instead he went straight to the 1” and proceeded to pound it to death. 😂😂. I was blown away somewhat. So next time we’ll start at 100. 😂😂 I was going to insert a video but can’t figure out how so here’s a still frame. The 1” can barely be seen between the 3” & 2”.
