After much deliberation, I decided it was time to get my kids their own .22 rifle. In the past they have shot my Henry Small Game Carbine and my CZ455 competition gun, but both of them are adult size and really too heavy for them to do anything other than bench rest shooting off of bags. And I'd really love for them to learn the basics of marksmanship in a way that's most conducive to them learning good habits. So yesterday I picked up a new CZ457 Scout.
After I shot a few rounds through to make sure the sights were on, it was their turn.
We put about 200 yards down range and they had a ball ringing steel, shooting spent shotgun shells, random garbage and old boxes. My oldest son even managed to hit a spent .22LR case while standing at about 5 yards. I was pretty impressed!
Needless to say I'm very happy with the purchase and know they'll get a lot of enjoyment out of this gun over the years.
