[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2396991, member: 30902"] Start small and workup, best way I know not to develop a flinch. Never, every set someone up to fail by lying to them about what to expect when it goes "boom". I saw a guy bs his own 8yo kid into believing he was shooting a .223 when it fact it was an unbraked 300wm. I doubt the kid will ever pick up another rifle of his own volition for the rest of his life. Dad and his buddies were laughing their butts off as the kid was laying on the ground behind the bench bleeding from the scope bite and thinking he'd been kicked in the head by a mule. Start small, build confidence, and let them move up as they are ready for more [/QUOTE]
