Tom,

Well now that you ask, I took a Remington 513T to school every Weds and Fri for 4 years in grades 7 through 10 as I was on a rifle team. We practiced after school on Weds and had matches between schools on Fridays. Our gym teacher, Mr. Bennett, was our rifle coach. Great guy and lots of clean fun. Who needed computers in those days!!!! (not a question)

This was in 1947 through 1950 in a small PA town. Most schools had smallbore rifle ranges. I usually got a ride with my dad to school but walked 1/2 mile home after school with the rifle on my shoulder and usually had ammo in my pocket. Try that today--Wow would it end quick.
