Awesome.  My 8 year old daughter would get knocked head over heels if she tried that.  A .22 is more to her liking.

Braver than I would have been at that age-bet he was a bit sore after that....:)

No actually he wasn't sore. He shot the rifle 4 more times after that. I figured he would be sore for sure.
