Well I just got done shooting with my oldest son and 3 of his buddies.

Ben showed up about 6 pm and asked if "Rico" could shoot my 44 mag. Of course I was more than glad to help out :D After everyone had a go at the 44. (with Nancy loads) We drug out the 22's and had a regular old shooting match. Cans full of water. My 4" steel targets (made for 22's)

Musta went thru the better part of 2 bricks before they got tired of shooting.

The one feller, Chris, hadn't done much shooting so I coached him a bit and went and drug out my Nylon 11 so he wouldn't be out classed by any of the other guys.

We had the targets all set up at 25 yards and by the time everybody was tired of shooting Chris was hitting everything he shot at. :cool:

I told them they were more than welcome to come back and shoot as long as I was there and we still had 22 shells.

Kinda reminded me of when I was that age and we'd burn up a brick a couple times a week.

Yup, fun was had by all :D

Way to go, RJ - that's the only way the youth of today are gonna maintain an interest in hunting and firearms. Sadly, not many parents are willing to take the time for their own kids this way, let alone the kid's buddies.

Fantastic! I bet those boys are hooked for life now.
