The thing I like most about this rule is that we will be able to introduce more youngsters to deer hunting. A youth model 243 with light loads is a heck of a lot more fun for them to shoot than a 20 gauge slug gun...
Precisely!!, the youngin's will become better marksmen like my Grandson who put over 200 rounds downrange practicing with an H&R .223 and then switching seamlessly to and H&R 30-30 Topper both had youth stocks and he was able to take a nice doe with his first shot ever at a deer during his first youth mentored hunt. This would never have happened with a shotgun.
The better marksmenship will cut down on another complaint in the shotgun only areas which was "excessive gunfire".
