Default New Sharpshooters In Family

For the first time ever, took my 14 yo twin grand girls to the range today. I was a little leary because they're both cutups, laughing it up and doing goofy stuff. So I gave a safety class at home and familiarized them with the weapon.

Once we got to the range, signed off on the waivers, they were all business and wide-eyed. Used my .22 cal Henry repeater, the smallest rifle I had they could handle comfortable.

Going into the unknown here, set the target at 21', not long for a rifle, but that's what I felt comfortable with for a first time shoot.

After each shot 20 rounds for center target and 10 rounds for head shots, I was surprised, Targets are small, about 16x24, one hit 26/30, the other hit 29/30. Not wanting to label either one, I just told them they were both sharpshooters.

Son was working, asked if the girls liked it, I said yes. You'll be going to the range now, you can do the handguns.
