    MOA or better with pellets... REALLY?

    Chuck, Good hearing from you. I may soon have to join you with the 8-10 meter airgun shooting. I've been having back problems for the last three weeks. I'm at that stage where the mind is still willing but the body can't be relied upon. Looking at that target that Mike shot in 18 degree...

    MOA or better with pellets... REALLY?

    Mike, I see your point and I can't argue your math. My thinking was I feel no real pressure when I fire the first shot in a group even though I have an expected point of impact. (BTW: This is never my point of aim). If the bullet hits somewhere else I do not suffer a down grade to my score. ...

    MOA or better with pellets... REALLY?

    Hey guys I guess I didn't state my point very well. The first shot being free has nothing to do with its point of impact. As mentioned that can be where intended, or not. I was thinking that the first bullet hole is zero since there are no others for comparison. After the first shot point of...

    MOA or better with pellets... REALLY?

    Guys, group shooting from a benchrest has been dying a slow death for years. There are many reasons. Moving backers, arguments over 4 vs 5 shot groups etc.etc. The first shot in a group is a freebee. Your time will be better spent shooting targets for score. Getting them to nest together...

    If you’re into 100y 5 shot groups

    In rimfire match today at 50 yards you can bet someone will shoot 250 with 16+ Xs on nearly every card. 248s and 9s won years ago but not often today. Indoors it is 250 20+ Xs to win a card. That is the state of the art. What would be ball park numbers for air rifles with pellet or slugs...

    If you’re into 100y 5 shot groups

    It seems you guys are in the same boat as rimfire shooters. We have many that believe it should be a pure accuracy sport, while others would be happy with a larger luck factor. We are slowly gravitating that way. Our ARA Nationals was an 8 target agg. now it is 6. Our PSL Main event is only...

    If you’re into 100y 5 shot groups

    Mike the same can be said about rimfire shooting at 100 yards. It may be fun but it is anything but precision shooting. TKH

    If you’re into 100y 5 shot groups

    We are awake and paying attention. Invites to all .22 air gunners. We hope to see some show up at our rimfire matches. Shooting shoulder to shoulder is the best way to sort out the rimfire vs air rifle accuracy issue. If air rifles can cut the mustard many current rimfire shooters will...

    What do you guys think about competing heads up against the rimfire guys? Will air rifles really compete heads up with rimfire? Would like to here your thoughts. TKH

    Central Pennsylvania Airgunners

    Hey guys I'm from Punxsutawney but would be interested in any matches you guys may have either indoor or out door. I'm just getting into this so I have a lot to learn. I just saw another thread that said air gunners would be able to shoot IR 50 matches along with the rimfires. That sounds...
