RE: Handi-Rifle
I don't and have never owned one. I like them and have seen several shoot. My son is only 6months so this is a little premature but that is the rifle I am buying him in .243win. Light recoil,safe and the first thing I would do is either replaceor work on the trigger. From what I have seen they are great shooter, the ones I saw were out of the box and all shot under 1.75"(at 100yds) with $100 scopes. I would get the H&R version myself. Have you seen lots on the used market? When I worked at a major outdoor outfitter selling hunting equip. I sold maybe 50 in a year and I never had any complaints and never saw one on the used rack.
