New rifle for daughter
« on: July 18, 2011, 08:08:38 PM »
Well finally decided on the following and it's now in the gun cabinet. It seemed to nicely fit my 13 year old daughter. Hopefully we can go shoot it early one morning soon. Have to do the break-in thing as well. Called Browning and got their procedure.

- Browning X-bolt Micro Midas 7mm-08
- Zeiss Conquest 3-9x40 with Z-plex
- Talley mounting rings for X-bolt
