I agree. I learned to shoot with my dad's youth model 22. It was a single shot bolt action and I could barely pull back the cock when I started shooting rabbits and armadillos. I believe I learned to shoot well because I often only had one chance to make a shot. I still have that rifle and cherish it. A few years back when I had to dispatch a skunk quickly, that was the rifle I chose to use.
