Well he get's Pepperd every time he shoots it and every time he shoots it he has to use safty goggles but what ever.........He came to the gun shop with us and picked out a new gun It's a Browning A-Bolt With BOSS in 325 WSM and it kicks about as much as a 300 WSM or a 30/06 he topped it off with a Nikon Pro Staff 3-9X40 Scope on it and has the BDC Reticle AND IT IS AN AWESOME GUN
I'm glad he found a new gun he likes. You never said the old one was dangerous to shoot in your original post. If it is blowing gas back then it should not be shot anymore. I was just saying
if it was still safe to shoot then you shouldn't force him to shoot a different gun.
