    Its been a while

    I actually prefer imgur to photobucket. It seems easier to use. Its been working well for me. Here are pics I put on imgur of the project im working on for hunting with my disco since pellet loading is such a pain in the rear in a rushed situation when a follow up shot is needed. I got tired of...

    Question about sighting in my Gamo Whisper Elite

    Thanks everybody for the input. Like I said, Im a newb at this. As a firearms hunter and bowhunter that makes bows Ive owned a chronograph for many years so I did a lot of experimenting with pellet weights ranging from 4 to 11 grains to check speed to establish KE and Mo since I care to use...

    Question about sighting in my Gamo Whisper Elite

    The bulk of the pests I am killing are at 30 feet but want to ensure maximum accuracy at 60 and 90 feet so am I bound to just hold low at these greater distances or should I sight in for a further distance and adjust at the close up ranges?

    Question about sighting in my Gamo Whisper Elite

    Greetings I just got my first gamo and I sighted it in at 30 feet and its accuracy is impressive. With it zeroed in at 30 feet, I then shot it at 60 feet and its impacting about 2.5 inches high. I them shot it at 90 feet and its about 3 inches high. I would have expected it to drop the further...
