Another thing to keep in mind.....when that 22-250 hits a target, it's just another hole. When it hits a milk jug full of water, it is an explosion! All of the young and first time shooters I have taught to shoot get a kick out of blowing up jugs, especially the girls. When you finish milk, fill it with water and put it in the garage. Water bottles like you buy in the store are good too. Have fun with your girl!
