What is she using, When I first started with .22 I used an old international that was ferking heavy for a kid until I bought my Anchutz 1407. I then got a match 1413 which again was heavy.
A bit more practice and she will be getting there. Wait for her first poss

I had a go at .22 shooting with the ATC. Couldn't even hit the target. I'm sure there was something wrong with my rifle.
I've never had a problem hitting things with a shotgun... ![]()

I D/K Tim - I'll find out. Not bad for an 11 year old who has been shooting for all of 4 weeks.

thats nearly ATC marksman standard, very good,
I used to be a fantastic shooting consistently up to 800 yards, and I have just been granted my Shotgun Cert as a stepping stone to my Cat 1 Fire arms.. ![]() she getting an air rifle for her next birthday? |

Hehe nice one!
I've only shot a gun once, went clay pigeon shooting a few months back, and miraculously shot 3 clays with 2 shots... really want to go back and see if it was a fluke! ![]() |

Nice one Ed's daughter! That's good shooting.
What's the range she's shooting at and with open sights or a 'scope? I'm getting used to my new Falcon Prarie air rifle, but not posting my groups up after seeing those! Pete ![]() edit; just seen to 25yrds bit on the sheet.

Nice shooting.
Great seeing that its only been 4 weeks too ![]() I'm guessing its a number 8 target rifle at 25 metres? Once she gets to grips with the breathing, she will be spot on. I've got my training manuals in a pdf if she wants to look at it sometime, I'll mail it over. |

I was pretty terrible at shooting in the ATC, but it was always good fun.
