I have a 457 in the EE. Price is negotiable, with extra discount if you post pics of it being enjoyed. I'd love to support any young person advancing their shooting skills.
Best .22lr Target Rifle
- Thread starter HuntingShootingGolfing
- Start date
There's a like-new Anschutz 1710 on the ee. Your daughter deserve the best.
Start with the A's and if funds are not there then its straight to the CZ's....a 452 with Good Ammo.
Tight Groups,
Rob
Well, just let her pick the color/rifle she likes
- Maybe my answer is bias, because all the girls/women shooters I've known over the years (that includes my wife) they all like to look pretty while doing it... and if having gears that match (in whichever color schemes she want) will get to have more fun while shooting, well be it
Kudos for allowing her to pick what she likes. Very attractive lady, meant in a most respectfull way. I love seeing everyone enjoying the shooting sports!! Cheers Chris PS is that a Tesro rifle
I hope your infectious and it catches on. Ive given away 14 quality firearms in the last year and as half to young shooters trying to keep our sport alive and growing. Id rather see them being enjoyed while Im not just dust in the wind,HaHa
That's British shooter Seonaid McIntosh, an internationally-known successful shooter. That photo was posted on Facebook on September 1, 2019 from the Rio World Cup after which she was ranked #1 in Three Position Rifle. She's good at 300m too.

Honestly, when it comes to 22lr I'm a cheap man.. that being said, my savage MK2 is sincerely a fkin' tack driver, all I did was put a stainless barreled action into a laminate stock and drop a cheap 10-40 optic on 'er, consistently putting 5rds into a dime sized whole at 45yds for under $750.. some times she even extracts and ejects!
You're not being candid. You said in response to sillymike "Kudos for allowing her to pick what she likes." Obviously you accepted the idea that sillymike allowed the person in the photo to pick what she likes because he's connected to the girl in the picture. What else could you have meant?
Right or wrong, you (perhaps like other readers) assumed that the girl in the photo was connected to sillymike, who may have created that impression by his words and the picture he posted. Maybe now that you know that the girl isn't connected in any way to him, you can find her very attractive in other ways.

Holy-gee...
For the record.
- No, she's not my daughter (but would certainly make any father proud)... Heck, as far as I know, I don't have a daughter!
- I used her picture as an example of the average female shooters I've had the opportunity to shoot with over the years.
Heck, just about every single female athletes I've known (from shooters to runners, including rowers and volley ball players) all like to look pretty while practicing their sports.
The same could be said for hunting. Maybe I'm stupid... but when we went shopping for a new hunting vest for the wife. I let her picked what she licked best and I was happy to pay for it. (Yeah, a $5.99 orange vest would have served the same purpose, but who cares.)
- in case anyone is wondering, no, that's not my wife... (she's taller with short hair, and a few years older)

Two married men were walking around Walmart, apparently lost and in conversation learned they were looking for their wives.
The older gentleman asked the younger, "What does your wife look like?"
The description given was, "35, 5'8, 120 pounds, blond hair and very pretty".
The older gentleman volunteered, "Let's look for your wife, she sounds better than mine!".
A little off topic but only to settle any disputes before hostilities commence.

How do you know what Im being? You assume your the only person that knows or follows competitive shooting? Did I make any reference as too who the young lady was. Too assume you know what I think confirms what an arrogant individual you are. I actually respected you for a while but like many youve proven your not remotely worth it. Your last comment shows what a warped old man you are. I pity your wife if you have one. As far as I know its still acceptable to comment that a person is attractive, I also added " In a respectful manner" your the one that insinuated something dirty!!!
Since were getting into the weeds I will add that at some point in the dystopian future that is a world of equity and inclusion..... good looking babies will need to be physically modified to fit in with the rest of us.
The "Privilege"platoon and their woke narrative just hasn't gotten around to beauty..... yet.

I don't have a beef with you. But you seem to have taken issue with having someone hint that perhaps you could have done things differently. Don't shoot the messenger.
More specifically, in today's world you ought to know, whether you like it or not, that if a comment is to be made about someone, it should be about something other than how attractive you find them. For example, you could have asked sillymike, who you thought was connected to the shooter, how she did rather than saying anything about finding her "very attractive". Her shooting skills and success would seem to be more relevant than her appearance.
Qualifying that you meant that "respectfully" doesn't make it any better or okay. Do you not understand what "very attractive" implies? Telling a father you find her daughter very attractive is probably not a good conversation starter, even if you insist it's "respectful" only. It's like telling a cleric he has a hot wife but you mean it in a nice way only.
No one needs to follow competitive shooting to identify the shooter in question. Anyone could have found out in very little time who the woman in the photo was by clicking on "search web for image". Nevertheless, it's not hard for anyone to see that the photo of an indoor ISSF World Cup event taking place in late August-early September was not in Canada.
I sincerely hope this is the end of this matter. Of course, some people may wish to continue to comment publicly about the appearance of a woman rather than her personal qualities, abilities, or achievements. But when it comes to folks like you and me, I would wager that we wouldn't want to be commented on for being fat, or skinny, or unattractive, or even arrogant.

Sillymike posted he lets his wife pick out her shooting/hunting attire. I simply replied Kudos for letting her pick what she likes. He also commented about most females in sporting events liking to look pretty while competing. I commented that the young woman in the pic was very attractive. Then a poster thought he was a mind reader"Krezkin" and insinuated now that I knew it wasnt Sillymikes wife or daughter that I would be able to think of her differently. Whose the one with the problem. Dont disagree with the 22 Overlord or youll be targeted personally next. Just make it simple GRAUHANEN BLOCKED
