I got a 22 at 7 and a 12 gauge single barrel at 8 . I never shot a shotgun smaller than a 12 until I was maybe 16 . That old H&R 12 32” full choke single barrel would thump the tar out of you but after awhile my pop and grand pop could not get a clay target out far enough where I couldn’t get it and that was by the time I was 10 . But in hindsight in the late 60’s early 70’s a kid had nowhere near the stuff to take his attention as they do now . This may sound absurd but I actually looked forward to the bruise that gun would give me after shooting 30-50 clay targets .
