I got my boys those 22 cal air riffles when they where younger man did we have fun with em don't remember the brand seems they where in the 150 bucks range. Good tool for learning how to shoot properly

100 percent agree...I want my sons to learn precision shooting and this can be done in the back yard without having to go way out to the gun range...
as a kid I grow up shooting quite a bit and most anytime I could get ammo...but everything we owned was open sights because that was all we could afford in those days...
for deer season we had an ongoing account at the local hardware store and we could add to the tab...we usually bought 3 or 4 shells...the freeway/bypass and Walmart put those mom and pop operations out of business...
when I got older and I could afford my own deer riffle the first thing I did was put on a good scope on it...and the first time I saw a good buck crossing that sendero in South Texas I couldn't find him in my scope quick enough...lol
we were at deer camp that evening and I told my brother what happened and everyone had a good laugh...but my brother said he would loan me his 22 pellet gun with a scope on it...well I took the screen of the bathroom window and shot many a black bird stealing the dog food...then I went to cutting the wild onion stems with the pellets...that pellet gun with the scope trained me to be quick with a scoped rifle...and a better shooter...
