So much I haven't taken out my 270 or 308 in several years.

His gun is a little H&R youth super small and light, so it's got some recoil but not to where my (soon to be 10) year old son can't handle it.

I'm thinking of finding a youth bolt for next year in 7mm08 and upgrade him from the single shot.
