That was humbling....
The boy has skills. He's 12, but he's 5'11 and 140 pounds so he can handle most regular rounds. We've done a lot of prone work with that CZ455 and a lot of standing with the ARs (22lr and 223).
I'm going to buy a rifle, eventually, and I want to make sure I don't buy-twice or cry once. There are so many options at the price points on ammo, rifle and scope I think there are a lot of chances to dial in the price-performance relationship.
I'll stop buying black rifles when my wife stops buying black shoes.
I'm relieved you took that with a sense of humor, I got to thinking after I posted that reply that it might be a touchy subject. Gotta admit though, you must have been a proud dad that day!
I've got a couple 6.5 bolts you can try out if you want, a bergara in XLR chassis and a tikka CTR in MDT HS3 chassis. I've been impressed with both, but only gone to 200 yd so far.
