Never tried chucks. Probably not something I will have on the bucket list
Okay, I'm off topic now, but I think anyone with kids should hand them a single shot .22 rifle as soon as they're big enough to shoot it. They'll be definitely hooked. Easy to load and shoot and no discouraging kick. And you can shoot all day for less than the price of a crappy movie.

One of the latest guns I bought was a Henry Golden Boy in 22LR. Very nice shooting 22 lever action cowboy type gun. Beautiful to look at and I got it to teach my grandkids how to shoot.
