Savage Rascal Youth 22LR Bolt Action Rimfire Rifle with Blue Stock

THE SAVAGE RASCAL

22LR Bolt Action Rimfire Rifle with Blue Stock, One of the important things one should do as a shooter who is also a parent is to introduce your children to shooting in a fun but disciplined way from the earliest practical age. That earliest practical age will vary from child to child but it will depend on their maturity, attitude, motor skills, and physical ability. One of the hurdles to overcome in teaching a child to manage a rifle safely and competently is in getting a rifle that they can physically manage. meanwhile, a standard “grown-up” rifle will simply have a too long length of pull, and will likely have too long a barrel, and will weigh too much for them to manage. So what will be needed is a modified rifle, normally a single-shot .22 rimfire will be best, with a shortened length of pull, a shortened barrel, and of about 3lb in weight. Savage Rascal Youth 22LR

In other words, the best way to learn to shoot well is one shot at a time. Meanwhile, single shot 22s are perfect for new shooters all the way up to those who want to perfect the art. That’s why Savage’s selection of single-shots are not toys. But they have serious big-gun features like an adjustable AccuTrigger, button-rifled barrels and adjustable peep sights in some models. Sure, you’ve only got one shot, but with a Savage, you can make it count.

How accurate is the savage rascal?

However, the most accurate loads went around 0.6 inch (see accompanying chart), and even the largest groups were well under an inch from the bench. Finally, the bottom line is that with a steady rest this gun will dispatch small game or soda cans at 25 paces. 22LR Bolt Action Rimfire Rifle with Blue Stock
