Another brother - another rifle - 12/06/18 11:52 PM
My other brother called today. He quit hunting years ago, but now his grandkids want to hunt. He took one of them out last weekend, hunting with a single shot 410 with slugs. The kid, amazingly, got shots at a doe and an 8 point, but missed them both, but that got the kid and my brother fired up about hunting. So he called to ask what centerfire rifle to buy for the grandsons. I suggested the Ruger American in 6.5 Creedmore IF he could easily find ammo in Natchez, Mississippi. And, for minimum recoil I suggested he buy 100 gr ammo, and hoped he could find something with Partitions. For a scope, I suggested a 3-9 by any major manufacturer. He said he was heading to the store right then.
Sure am happy the brother is back to hunting, and getting the grandkids involved.
