youth rifle

Post by Teddy » Wed Oct 23, 2019 3:44 pm

I have had a couple of Henrys over the years,I'm thinking of getting the youth model with a scope maybe a Simons.
I'm not a youth at 80 years but I think that rifle would be okay!

I LOVE my Golden Boy Youth model! I have a bummed left shoulder, so hefting a heavy rifle is difficult. The GBY is light weight, and the shorter LOP is perfect. I fitted mine with a Skinner Peep Sight, and added a large loop lever.

The targets show the first thirty shots right out of the box. You'll be a happy shooter!

I've got a youth rifle and I'm 6'1" and 250lbs. I find it very handy.

I haven't seen a scope ring setup like that. Where'd you get those?

It's something I cobbled together. I'll try to get a parts list together if you're interested.

I am. Thanks. I saw that and thought that could work on my Long Ranger to move the scope further forward.
