[QUOTE="Pulpwood, post: 1793021, member: 97349"] I understand I have seen that myself . I handled that a little different with my daughter , she wanted to shoot a deer at 6 yrs old (I didn’t think she was big enough) so I taught her how to shoot that following summer with my ruger heavy barrel 22 hornet . I bought her a Winchester compact (to big for her at the time)243 win so I had a gunsmith cut the stock to fit her added a good recoil pad . For three years she harvested 12 deer , one shot kills on all . I never let her shoot the 243 off the bench only at deer . We still practiced off the bench with the 22 hornet . Finally three years later I ask if the 243 kick any and she replied no dad it’s just like the 22 hornet . She never noticed the difference while excited during hunting situations . I witnessed my brother in law introduce his son to a 7-08 at about 8 yrs old scared him to death . He never worked with him with a 22 for starters or anything. [/QUOTE]
