Thanks for posting those links.
What do you recommend as a better rifle for teaching “good” shooting habits?
Depends how much you want to spend on the rifle and on the ammo and whom we’re teaching to shoot.
Are we talking of .22LR’s for teaching youth shooters, or full sized centerfire rifles for teaching adults? Do we want to start with .22LR rifles at ranges up to 100yards/meters, or do we want to teach adults how to shoot centerfire rifles at ranges up to (eg) 600 yards, where people have to learn how to dope the wind?
If you give me some more parameters, I might be able to make some useful suggestions. For example, for a fully grown man, your handle’s 1903/1903A3 rifle and .30-06 ammo with a 168gr Matchking bullet gets us a reasonably good starting point. The ammo is getting spendy, tho. It isn’t where I’d start kids, tho.
