In regards to reference points, in my early days of Hunter field target, back in the 12x max mag days I was able to pull off more than a couple wins with a 4-12 Vortex Crossfire, with their BDC reticle. I had 3 horizontal reference points below the cross hairs!!! It was a game of holding roughly...

I've not stumbled upon one. If someone finds it, please share.

I put a .20 barrel on mine, it was originally a .177. Only needed very slight tweaking of the hammer spring, and yes I did fiddle with the transfer port restriction, but probably didn't need to. No probe and no oring inside the barrel greatly simplifies a caliber change, relative to more...

Lol, I sometime wonder the same thing when I see a string of ridiculous posts.

I've had the opportunity to shoot a lot of pellets at very not normal pellet ranges. A few evenings ago I was shooting some JSB .20/13.73 pellets at 165 yards, 805fps at the muzzle. I could put them within the same two or so inches, pretty regularly. The wind was certainly favorable to be...

Realized a few days ago that I never tried to work through my misfit slug selection with the .22, 1:32 6 groove polygonal barrel that's in my Veteran Long. And that's for obvious reasons.The twist rate is pretty dang slow for slugs. I was shocked to see some semi-decent results with two...

Shot mine a bit night before last. One of my sons wanted to get out our field target guns and have some fun. It started with paper at various 10-55 yardages, but quickly became a fun session. My dope and scope zero were all good from back in January. I also shot at my 60-130 steel to gather...

Yeah, some guys miss a lot. Never understood the aversion to single shots. Make the first shot count. Flock of sterlings or Euro doves or house sparrows is GONE after they hear the projectile smack their buddy anyway. Same for other critters, the more times you have to shoot, the less...

None of those. Air Force utility lineup for a truck gun. 100% Theyre tools.

Some shot string data from mine in this post .... https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/1720t-bumblebee.1130699/ I eventually moved over to the 7.87s, just to be a bit flatter since I'm underpowered relative to most pistol ft shooters. Wind out to only 35 yards, max pistol ft distance, isnt...

My little 1720t in a Corcoran stock is all I want in a field target pistol. Pellet on pellet on pellet accuracy. And not pellet picky either, it'll do that with multiple varieties. I've actually never even tried to adjust a thing, it's still shooting at the factory 8.5 or whatever fpe. Its...

Highly variable for me, for same reason already stated. When it's prairie dog season I'll shoot 600-900 (2-3 boxes) a month. And that sometimes only represents 3-4 outings.

Assuming the .20 makes it a one-off, and that it wasn't rebarelled later, somebody in mid 20th century Japan was well aware of the .20s superiority. 😁😁😁

Those guys keep renewing b/c it allows them to continue to tell the wife they're trying to thin down the collection but stuffs just not selling. He he

Seems like that "pistol" is trying to compensate for something.
