Let my son shoot the .470 NE double today
25/02/07 09:22 AM

I posted this on AR but figured some of you who don't frequent that site might like to see these pics...

My 13-year-old son, Chad, asked me to let him shoot the new double rifle in .470 N.E. I had him watch me first to see if he was okay with it and he was. I loaded up a couple snap caps and he gave 'em a shot. Then I gave him one in the right barrel with a snap cap in the left...'cause doubling might end up with him dropping the rifle...oh yeah, and it might hurt.

He shot standing up so he could recoil with the gun. He fired the rifle and looked over his shoulder at me with a "what was that" look on his face. After he handed me the rifle he found he had a bloody nose. Good thing there was plenty of snow.

Good news is he shot quite well for off-hand at 25yds (bulls-eye)...and that target is now hanging on the wall in his room.

Dad did okay too, off-hand at 25 yds, with a right and left within an inch of each other and in the bulls-eye.
