Took the neighbors 12 year old to the Texas State Rifle Association Highpower Rifle Championship. We were staying in the barracks at Camp Swift so it was cheap and conveniant.
He learned to score and run targets in the pits, plus met a lot of good people. He certainly can see trace well. He could tell you exactly where the bullet hit the target at 600 yards. He said he could see the bullets all the way in.
Nothing like having your own 6th grader. He policed brass and trash, picked up the number boards in the pits after we finished rapid fires. He's the son of some divorced friends of mine. Good enough kid. Good eyes, wants to learn to shoot. My previous junior is with the US Army Marksmanship Unit now so I have a spot open. He just needs to get about an inch taller and I need to find a left-handed kids coat.
Probably won't get much parental help but I don't think they are moving. He won't be driving for a while and he snores, unlike my previous junior who slept like he was dead. He isn't shy around people so that's good. Mom and a sister are raising him.
Might as well learn to shoot highpower.
