I think we all probable learned to shoot a rifle with the 22 WRF. My greatest memories of learning to shoot was with a side by side 410.
My dad would take me to a remote village dump site and I would hide under a cardboard box for a while and bust out blasting at the crows. Probably illegal as hell but sure was fun for a 12 year old. THEN came the 06. Good memories. I remember pulling the trigger on that 721 like it was yesterday. The ground was covered in borate from a recent burn but the fauna was plush. Propped on a stump near a cliff shooting across the river into Glacier National Park. Ha. Started life as a rebel. :elmer::thumbsup:
