[QUOTE="fly2cast, post: 225356, member: 656"] I don't think recoil is the problem as the gun doesn't kick much. Flinching? Maybe. Several times at the range I load the gun for him with either a blank or live round without him knowing. I watch for the flinch with the blank. He's usually pretty good with the flinch but has his moments. I've checked eye dominance and he shoots with the correct eye. He says he just has a hard time holding the rifle steady. I have two other kids who use the same shooting technique as he does. They both are awesome shots (I have to say better than I am quite often). But for whatever reason, he has problems. To give an example, at 200 yards, he's lucky to hit the paper. At 100, his groups are about 10 inches. Like I said, this is not from a bench, but from sitting position using a shooting stick. It's bad. [/QUOTE]
