I have and some of those barrels cost more than his complete Contender.

My boy got a cap gun revolver and a Lil Indian recurve from Santa and has the same pride of ownership sounds like your boy has.

I thought it was great buying myself a bow/gun. It’s 10X more fun seeing my kid’s face glow when he opened it.

Hope you and he make some great memories on the range and in the field with them.
Thanks.It sounds as though you covered several bases with your bow/gun presents.

Both of these barrels are older and are 21" tapered barrels and are 0.625 at the muzzle.

I gave one like that to my 8 year old Grandson . He loves it .I am sure your boy does also . I bought a 30/30 barrel he will get on his next birthday . These are not cheap guns and are super accurate . I have one in 7/30 Waters that I Deer hunt with around here .

RTE, when the lad gets a little older you can give him a .30-30 barrel. grin

Despite the fact that most Contenders shoot quite well, there's always room for improvement.
