Washington legal inline - youth sized?
« on: May 29, 2013, 01:03:58 PM »
So my 13 year old daughter told me she wants to hunt with me this fall.  Signed her up for hunter's ed and now need to figure out gear.  Does anyone have suggestions on a youth sized Washington legal inline?

I've never seen an inline youth size   :dunno:
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

Looks like you can do a western conversion just like the others and the LOP is 12.25".  Should be perfect.   Thanks!

My son shoots and hunts with TC Black diamond express 50 cal.  Its not a youth model but he seems to handle it quit well.  The trick is finding the correct load for kids.  We wound up with a 240 grain sabot pushed by 70 grains of triple 7, FFF and limiting his possible shots 70 to yards and under for deer.  He was 10 the first trip out with a muzzleloader and I was concerned it would be to much weight for him but he packed it from dawn until dusk everyday and he is a small lean kid (78lbs) but he also loves to go hunting.  You can usually find these used for around $150.00.

Midway has one Littlehorn left at $80 off, but won't ship to my home or to my FFL..... :bash:  No FFL required on these.  I don't get it...

Just to let you know... I have a nearly new Wolverine - blued barrel and black composite stock - I would like to sell.  It would be very easy to cut the stock down to what ever LOP you might want.



Keep shooting muzzleloaders - They are a blast!!

Chuck270-  That seems like stout load for someone under 100lbs.  Did he train and sight in with something lighter, or just get used to that load from the get-go?  I have a bunch of 200gr hardcast that I use for 10mm pistol loads along with some blue sabots,  Thinking that may be a good combo under a similar amount of 777 FFF or Black MZ.

fly-by,  Yes, it is a stout load for someone that size and not recommended for everyone.  If I remember correctly we started with the 240gr. but with Pyrodex RS at 70grians.

I took my cousins kid with me last year and was in the same boat.  The knight was way to big for him and some one recommended the cva buckhorn magnum.  It just so happened I had one in the safe.  It fit him perfect.  He shot it well.   He was 10.  I was looking at the youth models that knight offers and it was way more than I wanted to spend for a rifle he would only use for a few seasons.  I think you can pick up the cva for under 200.

You can order a youth stock for the knight wolverine.

Thanks for all the replies. I picked up Sabotloader's Wolverine and am debating whether to cut the stock or keep an eye on GB for a youth stock.  I kinda want to keep it intact for when she grows into it (or when I want to borrow it - nice trigger).
