This is my latest project. My son and I shot it a couple of times. He's 13 years old and loves to shoot the big boys. I'm working him up slow though. The sight is a Leupold Prismatic.

Nice rig. What's the barrel length? I'm curious what the advantage of the prism sights is too? I've never seen or handled one in person.
 
I have one just like that but with the pro hunter stock and 22" custom shop barrel, and a bushnell 3-9x40 it's a good deerstomper.

Mine is a 24 inch barrel Bergara. The prismatic sight is not magnified and lets me shoot with both eyes open acquiring a target inside of 100 yards super quick. The crosshairs on the scope are etched so I can use the scope during the day not illuminated, or dawn and dusk illuminated. I really like it.
