New Squirrel Gun

[BigJLocke]

My youngest son is 8, he’ll be 9 in July and he was diagnosed a few years ago with autism. One of the things he struggles with is that he doesn’t quite understand that you can’t be good at EVERYTHING the first time you try it and sometimes he gets incredibly discouraged.
Well, yesterday I got my new Savage B22FVSR sighted in at 50 yards with a 4-16x50 scope and my dead air mask suppressor, and it is an absolute tack driver.
I put little man behind the gun and he hit a 2 inch spinner probably 20 times in a row. I’m really impressed with this set up and it’s so easy that even an 8 year old can hit 10 rings. Really looking forward to squirrel season this year!

Congrats on the new squirrel rifle, sounds like it could be a good tool for your son as well giving him and maintaining confidence in task at hand.
