[QUOTE="milo-2, post: 1897660, member: 33622"] I started our Godson and his younger brother at 3 1/2 with 22LR. I guess it all comes down to their desire. The boys did great, and got their first 22's at Christmas the yr they turned 5. We have never looked back, they both shot centerfire when 6 1/2, both had first rd hits at 1K with one of my 6.5x47's, even though it maybe was a little too much for them, they wanted to do it, and kept going till they missed, which made it easy to quit. Today they both own custom built 6 Dashers and do remarkably well, 13 & 10. The oldest boy had 2 hits at 2K last Wed evening. I picked up a 10-22 for the neighbor boy, he is 3 1/2 right now, cut the stock down, no way is this kid ready to shoot. All kids are different. [/QUOTE]
