I bought a Howa mini action in a 6.5 grendel for my 12 year old to start getting into high power silhouette after he did smal bore silhouette this year.

Welcome to the group from Atlanta, Georgia…..

Small bore silhouette really teaches you how to shoot………..very tough game.

Which Howa did you buy????? I am going to buy a bolt G gun in a couple of weeks…….

Welcome to the forum Nijordan!

I bought the howa mini with the wood stock, deciding on the scope now, leupold or sightron.

Welcome to the horde from Wisconsin .

Welcome to the clan, Nj, from the great nation of Texas! Your kid can't have all the fun, which Howa are you getting yourself?

Once we get his dialed in and are successful I might get my own. At 6.2 lbs it’s a perfect size for him.

Welcome aboard!

I wish something like the Howa Mini or a SAKO Vixen in 6.5 Grendel had been available when I was a kid.

That would have been much easier to get trigger time with than our Model 70 in .270 Winchester.

I think the closest thing might have been a 250-3000 Savage, which wasn’t that popular or well-known.

Next was my Grandpa’s .257 Roberts.

I never looked or thought of getting one but it was on my local gun shops shelf and fit him well, should work well for him and my 6 yoa once he gets older.
