Hi Everyone,
I purchased a new HW95L Field Pro from AoA last year, and had them install a Vortek kit in it. It's a super nice rifle, and the scope is actually very good. I was surprised! Anyway, I have this illness called Ramsay-Hunt Syndrome which resulted in the paralysis of the right side of my face. So, I can't blink my right eye much, the tear ducts are plugged to keep the eye flooded so that I don't lose it, etc. etc.
I'm right handed and right eye dominant. I simply can't get comfortable with using a scope. I have always shot with both eyes open (early training) and with the scope, it's causing me a lot of discomfort and even dizziness. I thought my 14 year old daughter and I would shoot together but the HW95 is too heavy for her and she's intimidated by the whole act of cocking the rifle. So, I'm considering selling/trading the HW95 for something like a FWB300 with peeps or a FAS6004 Target.
Not long ago, I purchased a Mrodair Targetmaster and it has been a fun little gun to shoot. It's more of a plinker gun, and it has whetted my appetite for a better target pistol.
I do not want to deal with the Yellow Forum, and I don't want to get ripped off. Do any of you have any suggestions? My rifle has less than one tin of pellets through it, has been stored in a case, I have the original paperwork and the original box. I think that I have about $670 in it in total. What's your suggestions? And no, no one around my area shoots serious pellet guns that I can find. No clubs, etc. BTW, I do most of my shooting in my garage at about 26 feet.
Thanks in advance.
