He's 12 yrs old and the rifle has a custom muzzle break on it! A good friend of ours builds custom guns and put the break on for us. He wears electronic ear muffs so he can hear me and cancel out the noise. Works very well. The rounds are handloads and leaving at 2750. I have a load just about finished that will be about 2850 fps. H1000, adg brass, Fed 215 primers. Shots 1/2" group as is.

That's awesome. I bought the exact gun for my son who isn't 12 year but I was curious what the recoil was like.

Was this a youth hunt or did he draw the early rifle tag?
