    You will be a very happy Great Uncle! My new great niece is only two, but I told her mum last week that I'm sorting out her first rifle now! Can't start them too early, I reckon!

    The most important thing imo is not the caliber or cartridge but learning how to stalk close and shoot quickly and accurately off-hand and supported
