[QUOTE="JustAnOldCooter, post: 3063101, member: 123343"] As many weekends as he wants to go ;-) Overall in the summer I'd say twice a month on the long range...weather has NOT been cooperative lately. We do have access to our local indoor range for 25-100 yards but family illness has inhibited that from happening. Right now we're going to be working on developing his control-muscles (core and upper body), posture, breathing control, and trigger skills ala dry-fire on another Rem SA setup to get the basics down. Range time is mostly to focus on the benchrest basics with a Sendaro'd .223 and keeping things engaging with some modern sporting rifles and a pistol or two until we're complete on the build...then we can bring it all together for more shooting positions and variable distances and wind conditions. By August, I plan on having him half n half between 200 and 500 ranges to get a feel for his capabilities and set limitations for maximum humane-harvest distances. I'm pretty impressed with his skills so far...looking forward to watching his development. I do want this rifle to grow with him though, so I don't want to limit the setup to where he is now...can't afford multiple barrels over the years if you know what I mean... [/QUOTE]
