    Setting kids up for the shot

    Practice, Practice and more Practice. Some people just never become proficient or have a knack for hunting. Mediocre is at best all to be expected. Just like anything else when you are teaching a friend, spouse or child. At some point they will take it forward. With a kid especially only YOU can ascertain when they have reached thei pinnacle. Sure it should get better but with kids do not put too much emphasis on the end result. They, like us. Are unique and take time to figure it out.

    rem 700

    https://riflebasix.com/blog/still-having-issues-with-your-remington-700-trigger/ The Timney is a great trigger and they have been around forever and are here in Phoenix if you decide to go that route. I replaced the trigger in my Savage Axis with a Rifle BAsix and am happy with it. I bought a barreled action that came with a Timney so I used that to replace the trigger in my 700 I bought in the early 90's. It is set to 3#'s and has never had a single problem. PM me if you are interested in it.

    Setting kids up for the shot

    Kids need to learn that killing a deer the first time out to feed daddys ego isn't what it all about. They should hike a few miles for a couple years first before they get daddys participitation trophy, which they don't really care about at all.

    Any Muzzleloader Success?

    I haven't heard of any reports. What unit were you in? Lots of people had the day off. Might have been recreational shooters too.

    Setting kids up for the shot

    Casey you are on the right track. Take him out shooting every weekend with a 22 walking around the desert. Shoot lizards, butterflies, leafs etc while looking for rabbits, tweety birds etc. Take an orange. While you are out tell him you are going to have him turnaround then you will toss it and you will tell him to turn around, find it and he has five seconds to shoot it. THrow it like 40' away. If you need .22 ammo let me know I have plenty. Do this so he gets the basics down, over and over again. When you finally let him shoot the 257 make sure the first 50 rounds are done standing up so he can understand the relationship between getting a good cheek weld and being able get close enough to the scope so he has a full view. Keep the target big and close. Think cantelopes at 50 yards, make it easy to build his confidence. A 223 or 22-250 is close to a 257 with a break but less recoil and way less loud.

    Lake was a dem then switched. Repub's are outta touch almost as far as the Dims want to make everything free. The SC really effed up on R vs W. Govenors should never have the power to decide that law on a State Level or be able to have Carte Blanche to pass any law. Sign off on a law voted in by the citizens yes. Lake doesn't care one iota about anything other than being in the spotlight. I wish she wasn't so flighty and had half the brains of Sinema. Kelly is smart and has his chit together, he's just on the wrong side and Masters doesn't know which way is up. Look for DeSantis for POTUS. The Donald had his shot and effed anyone over who was close to him. He would never go for it but could be useful in DeSantis's Cabinet. Which is about as close as he is going to get to a spot on the HIll. I'm all for social programs. College Loan Forgiveness has some Merit but the whole cost is astronomical as is the cost of Medicare and Health Insurance in general. God forbid you have diabetes. Good Luck with covering the costs if you are struggling to get by or a young family and you have a child that get's it at 3yo. Four years of college and medical should be free.18 months of mandatory Military Service should be upon graduating HS. I've been voteing since 1970 and have seen a lot of water under the bridge. Unfortunately there are too many elected officials who want to tear down what this country stands for. It seems like a broken record with no hope in sight for the everyday citizen that doesn't have a family income of $150K or more.
