I'm thinking about taking my girlfriend shooting. She's from a very pro-gun family, but has never actually handled a gun.
Any advice for taking her on her first range day?
So, I've got some low-recoil rounds for the Mosin, and a small number of .22s. I seriously wish I would have gotten more of those low-recoil Czech 7.62x54 rounds when SGAmmo had them. They shoot like .22lr. I've only got a few dozen of them left.
I know I need to get a second set of earmuffs. Think it's okay to just jump right into the Ruger 10/22? I have a .22 bolt action, but it's prone to weak primer strikes so I wouldn't feel safe giving it to an amateur shooter.
Any ideas to make it a fun day?
No, I'm not going to hand her a 12 gauge or some hand cannon. Figured there'd be people thinking about that.
