Wow! Excellent all around!

An experience she’ll never forget, using the only rifle/load she’ll likely ever need. 👍

What load for the 140 can that little cutie handle. I have a 5 year old and 7 year old grand daughters so I'm curious. Heck of a buck and congrats to her.

That rifle loves 41.0 grains of IMR-4064 behind the 140 grain Ballistic Tip. Not a lot of recoil at all. It’s a Carolina Precision custom with a McMillion model 7 duplicate, Shilen match barrel.
