What distance are you shooting?

[ToddGeddes63]

Hi all, I was wondering what distance you all shoot at? I have a home range out at 20 yards. I have been going out to the desert and shooting 40 to 100 yards, working on my holdover and windage on the 4-16x44 scope. The gun is a Benjamin Cayden. 22 Pellet choise is jsb 15.89. I have found that if I turn down the air half the way the groups are tighter and shot count is acceptable. I could use more magnafication at further distances but for the most part I am pleased. Let me know what you are doing well for your shooting experience.

I usually sight in at 50yards and the furthest I punch paper is 100yards. I use to have a golf ball mounted on a 1/2in pipe at 100, it was a fun target, I need to set my range back up. 

 

[Moog]

I shoot in my back yard. I normally shoot my break barrel rifles off hand at 25 to 50 yards. I shoot my C02 pistol off hand from 10 to 25 yrds.

I'm fortunate enough to have targets at 15, 40, 50, 55, 60, 64 and 102 yards. I do a lot of plinking at those distances. When shooting for groups? 40 and 50 yards mostly, though I have grouped out to 102 yards. I practice dialing elevation or hold overs and get lots of practice holding off for wind. My scope is an Athlon Helos 6-24x50 FFP IR with the APLR2 MOA reticle. 

My 64 yard shooting point and my typical plinking targets, I'm still amazed that i can hit those black walnut husk over and over again.

I have a 1.5" cowbell out at 50 yards I shoot quite often.

Targets set 15 to 100 yards and everything in between. I move them around every couple of weeks to keep things interesting 

 

[JungleShooter]

5 to 100 yards.

Depending on the permission, and how close the pigeons allow me to approach....

At one of my most frequent permissions they usually roost between 40 and 60y.

On another permission I can get as close as 20y.

Then there're always those lucky occasions (lucky for me, not so for the pigeon), where they are either didn't listen to the warnings of their comrades, or they're too inexperienced, or they're too bold... –– and land right in front of my muzzle (5 to 10y).



A 14FPE pistol and a 26FPE bullpup usually do the dirty work, slinging H&N Sniper Lights (14.04gr) and JSB 15.89gr domes at those dirty rats with wings.

Currently shoot at 26 yards, 50 yards and 76 yards but have about 150 available. There are markers at 30, 60, 90 and 100. 

26 yards is the target on the slide. 76 yards is the white gate where I now have a squirrel silhouette mounted on one of the posts and shot a 1" group with NSA slugs this past weekend. 

 

[Ghostranger169]

10 to 55 on the 12ftlb range:

25 to 150 on the intermediate range:

And 30 to 250 yards on the long range:

 

[MadKatt]

Dang some of you guys are so lucky to have that kind of back yard makes me green with envy. My best distance in the back yard is around 18 yards. Have to go to the range for anything longer.

 

[Peashooter]

50 - 100 Meters. ( sadly not in my own back yard as i live in a apartment, so its a 35 min drive to my friends place )

But i assume wind could force us to shoot shorter some day

And since i will be dropping down to .177 the challenge should get bigger at least with some wind, but that was also the general idea as .22 at least on 50 M is just slight POI shift that can not be blamed on the shooter.

 

[davelarson]

The only level shooting I have is 20 yards. All the rest is uphill since I live at the foot of a mountain. But I can reach 130 yards. In the picture you can see the 130 yard targets to the right of a flicker nesting box, on the crooked tree. Wish it was level but it’s still pretty awesome! I’m lucky to have it available.

 

[AndyH]

I have a 50 and 80 yard range in my yard.

 

[uhfradarwill]

1 million yards!!

 

[AirShot]

I have 1200 ft to the back of my property but having only springers I just use 100 yds as a max distance. Spinner targets at 30, 35, 40, 50, then other targets at 75 and 100 yds. I have a couple swinging golfballs around 90 yds for fun. My main targets are at 35 yds where my Leupold scope is zeroed for. I usually check that first to be sure the TX200 is shooting up to par when I start.

 

[buckyusn]

Lots of awesome ranges, folks! My living situation limits me to 40 yards max, but I do most of my shooting from 20 - 35 yards.

 

[shambozzie]

75 yds for me. Spinners @ 35, 45, 55 and 75 yds.. One day i will get off my a$& and clear out to 100+. 

 

[Tony_Farrar]

50-65 yrds safely in my back yard. I have a LARGE back yd (5 acres) but neighbors too close and at jacked up angles to me to safely shoot any further at home. Kind of a downer cause i like to really stretch out my .45 Texan CF from 100+ yrds. Luckily I have friends fairly close by that let me come shoot at their farm.

 

[Haganaga]

I have a pasture out to like 500 yards, but my farthest has been 147 yards. 

 

[SteveV]

10 to 55 yards, just like FT -
