Looks like he may have leaned into the rifle a bit on that 6' oclock low round.

That group won't get him to the Palma Matches.
However, it will serve as grounds for a lot of fun on another day at the range to see if we can improve on some fundamentals and tighten things up a bit.

Many thanks to all of you for your kind and supportive remarks ,

Good video. Great to see kids catching the fever!

Im just starting to load cast for my 8mm’s. Gonna try a 323470.
i was just gas checking my first batch. My NOE sizer came in yesterday. I have a 325 for the 450. But only seating checks cause Im gonna powder coat these AFTER seating gc. Something new for me.

Unique & 2400 are target powders. Just looking for target but want accuracy.

I love how he dials in the elevation to get the best hold / sight line up on the rest! Most shooters just adjust their bodies! That comes from good teaching and experience!

I'm Thinking one of these days when he grows up he will move out west and give the "Coats Brothers" a challenge on the 1 mile range!

You Know Ben, A young Lad does not learn that by accident! He has to have a Damn good teacher / instructor !
I would have been honored at that age!
