Old Man, I would recommend you stick to Henry, Ramona and your 10/22. I think a flash in the pan might be to much for you. I know my limitations. I don't even use flints to start a fire. TB
Work is for people who don't hunt, plink or fish. Now that I am retired, I hunt, plink and fish. Life is good.

I shot it once, hit the target pretty much centered for windage but about 2 inches low. Been there and done that and it was good enough for me.
