Strange days

[Kimber Custom]

I asked my daughter if she would like to go to the range today. Can I shoot my .22? No, I can't replace the ammo - you're going to have to shoot .223 today.

She did well. First real experience with center fire.

Good for you and her.

 

[Father of four]

Having to shoot the .223 instead of the .22 must have been a real bummer for her.

 

[OLDNEWBIE]

Range trips are gonna cost you a lot more from now on! Nice that your range has prone shooting BTW.

 

[Father of four]

Douglas Ridge?

 

[Kimber Custom]

She was a little hesitant at first but now that she's had that first experience I suspect my .223 supply is going to suffer. She wasn't quite willing to give the .308 a run but it will come

 

[Kimber Custom]

Yes, Douglas Ridge. That's our home range. 45 min drive but great facility.

 

[Father of four]

Hey, I got a 12 yo girl myself. She hasn't graduated to the .223 yet. Did yours drop the .223 from the recoil?

 

[Kimber Custom]

No, but prone and slinged in helps ensure the finish of the rifle

She asked me if it had any recoil. No, it's a .22. I thought you said it didn't have any recoil? It doesn't

now im ashamed of myself, i cant get a group like that with my sks. i shamelessly give credit to the optics.

Great job man.. Maybe hook up the bipod on that. I put one on my fiance's ar, she seemed to like it a little more. Tell the daughter awesome groups tho! Kinda jealous I didn't get to shoot this weekend

 

[Ironbar]

Ahhh, but the mission of Appleseed is to teach people how to shoot great without the use of a bi-pod. Just a sling, and good shooting techniques are all that's required.

I'd save those nice groups to show them to her first boyfriend. You won't even have to give him the talk while cleaning you most businesslike gun

 

[salmonriverjohn]

Excellent form. Someones taught her well. Nice job!

 

[Kimber Custom]

Thank you. She's been to a few Appleseed's with me. I got to give her a Rifleman patch earlier this year.

[Mathmattx]

Nice!! Awesome work.

 

[Sgt Nambu]

Nice groups, nice form, nice mat and gear, super nice relationship with your daughter!!! Great job!

 

[ZA_Survivalist]

Absolutely awesome.
My favorite part?
"Can I shoot my .22?, no I cant replace the ammo. You're going to have to shoot .223 today."
Very cool.
Thank you for getting her into the sport and teaching her!
