His dad is my good buddy and hopefully I'll be there to watch him use it in a year or so on his first elk. Here is how well he shoots it, a picture my buddy sent me: Quote So this is how the rifle shoots in the hands of a 9 year old. Granted he has had a bunch of trigger time for being 9 but I was impressed with his shooting and the rifle! Load was 53 grains of IMR-4350 and 130 grain Speer bullets, not max but no slouch load either, he said it kicks "insanely" but he shot it 4 times, then went on to shoot the .257 Roberts about 10 shots. Sorry for the picture camera phone. The orange center is 1" and the groups was shot from sandbags at 100 yards.

Wowza! Man thats nice, Karnis has out done himself. JOC was right. The 270 Winchester on a Model 70 is a great combination as is the 30/06 and 375 H&H
