Title: Got a new rifle for my birthday!!
Post by: PathfinderJR on March 28, 2010, 10:50:35 PM

I turned 11 last month. I got a lot of presents, But by far my favorite was my rifle.  It was a Marlin XS7Y.  It's a .308 win.  I used it at our local gun range.  At 100 yards, I popped a baloon! It works great.  It didn't kick very much at all.  I shot 27 times to get it sighted in. :bfg: :hunt2: :guns: :hunter:

Wow Pathfinder JR, you must have really been showing that you know gun safety and muzzle control really well.... Good job. Someone must love you very much to get such a great gift for you.

looks like a great shooter.  Huntin kid is my boy and he is also upgrading from his single shot this year.  Are you going turkey hunting this year?
