Today was my grandson Trevor's 1st day to shoot at a full 50 yards.
He used my 1909 Argentine, 7X57mm, sporter.
I am very proud of his progress.
I think for Trevor to be only 9 years old that he is doing real well.

Thanks for your kind words.
I built that one.
I put a ton of money and time into it.
Of course, right now......I don't have a single regret.

I am amazed at how well he’s doing, especially considering he’s barely got started into this.

He’s a natural for sure!!

Good job, Teacher.

I really enjoy teaching kids to shoot. Lots of fun when you connect and
they get it, and start doing it well, and usually you get paid with a nice,
big grin!

Take pride in both Trevor and yourself. You both deserve
an equal amount of praise for your accomplishments so
far.

Thanks to all of you for your encouragement.
Believe it or not, Trevor reads all of your remarks.

Ben,
Enjoyable as always.
*My 1895 Argentine Mauser likes Lyman's 287641 and 13.0-grains of Unique. What bullet and load is Trevor shooting.

Trevor,
Your shooting skills are showing much improvement. Keep listening to Grandpa, and make sure he keeps us informed of your progress.

Ok, - to Trevor -- You are doing very well, young man. You are
lucky to have such a talented and dedicated grandpa. Learn all
you can from him - he is a real expert on the topic of cast bullets
and a true artisan in wood finishing.

Trevor is progressing very fast. While I have to give the educator much of the credit, the student obviously has a real feeling, a real aptitude for the subject-matter.
He's doing so well Ben. Well done to both of you.

Takes teamwork for education to work properly.
The student must be insterested in learning and put effort into the process. The educator must be involved with the goal of transferring their knowledge to the student.
Looks to me like this is an example of what happens when both parties live up to the expectations.

Trevor calls during the week at night.
Wants to discuss what he is going to shoot on the next range trip.
He loves it ! !
