Default RE: Youth Muzzleloader

ORIGINAL: Big Ol Gobbler

I know it ultimately comes down to what feels the best but are there muzzleloaders that are better proportioned for kids? I've got an almost 7 year old daughter for which I am planning ahead. She's already 4'8" and about 80 lbs. Just looking for something entry level. What are your thoughts? Thanks!
A Two Man Shooting Stand with a shooting rail, then the rifle weight doesn't matter as much. The
Sportman's guide, has a two Man Stand that holds 500lbs and a shooting rail for $89. That is a deal:

Get acouple of these (one AM stand, one PM stand)andthen you can be right next to your daughter and she won't have a problem pointing the gun, because she can use the rail. If it is NOT high enough, get a shooting stick that is adjustable and wire it to the shooting rail or use a C-Clamp to hold it to the shooting rail.Prayer works best, butI suspect youalready know that by you signature! Amen for that also. May the Lord add a blessing to your plans for"Training up a child in the way he/she should go, so when he is old he/she will not depart from it". May the Lord bless you and keep you.
