10m Target Rifle

[I. J.]

A 75 or 300S is torture when your 12. An HW30S should be a good bet, although I'd look for a Diana 24D, myself. A Diana Diopter 60 or 75 would top it off nicely.
All the best in the sport.

While various models of small Dianas (and others) would be suitable the HW30 is readily available over the counter at most gun shops and the sports peep sights are available from that there internet web site.

It depends on the 12yr old. My nephew was a high and wide as I am when he was 12, and now at age 16, he's as big and heavy as his dad..
Thats why I asked what TS was looking for; junior gun or not

Earlier this year I was lucky enough to acquire a Walther LG400 and I have been amazed at just how light and "small feeling" these match rifles have become - noticeably different to the previous model Walther LG300 Anatomic that I have been shooting for a few years now.

Compared to a Feinwerkbau P70 or P700 the Anatomic is very light, but the current model LG400 is even lighter.

I am advised by a good friend (who is very knowledgeable on all matters concerning Walther match rifles) that the Walther LG400 Blacktec has an even smaller alloy stock and he is currently coaching two teenage girls who are shooting this same model to a very good standard.

If the budget should permit, I can see this Blacktec being very suitable for smaller framed shooters (including younger persons) who may have previously been put off of buying a PCP match rifle due to the overall size and weight.
