From about 15 yards, shooting super colibris, in the backyard. This is her second 5 shots. I let her take a few practice shots then put a target up to save.
 
Great job!

She looks as proud as she can be and justifiably so!

Thanks for teaching 'em early and teachin' 'em safety from the beginning.

Not sure if you have an AR or not, but the collapsible stocks are great for them to be able to get a decent cheek weld.

I have one, but still a tad heavy for her to handle. My twelve year old has shot everything up to a M44.
 
He was eight when he started shooting the Polish Tantal. The stock was a bit long but the recoil next to nothing.

I haven't tried letting the younger ones shoot from a rest. I figured they were old enough to shoot a rifle when they were big enough to hold it, but we might have to try it.
