Trevor did some real good shooting with the Ruger # 1, 30-30 today.
He was shooting the 311008 ( 124 grs. ) with 4.2 grs. of Red Dot.
Very accurate load.

Here is how many 30-30 rounds he fired :

He was shooting at 35 yards , here is his group :

We switched over to the 7 mm Mauser with the RCBS 145 gr. and 11.0 of Unique

Here are the rounds he fired :
RCBS 145 gr. and 11.0 of Unique

Here is his group at 58 Yards with the 7X57mm
Not too bad for a 10 yr. old :

Many thanks,
