My 12 year old used my 24" AA overwatch last year to take two bucks, but that is a big, heavy gun for him. This past summer I picked up a 14.5 Sabre Defense upper and had a WCI comp pinned on it. We call it the "short Grendel" and the 24" is the "big Grendel".
Yesterday afternoon I dropped him off at his stand about 3pm, then walked to my stand about 500 yds away, about 5pm I heard him shoot once.
He had watched three does cross a small field about 80 yds before stopping right in front of him at 30yds, the shot was quartering away, the 123 SST factory load took out the heart and the deer kinda fell about 10yds, looked like somebody cleaned a paint brush. He was happy because this was the first deer he has took without me right beside him.
The picture sucks.
