Hi all,
I bought my first PCP back in 2012. A Benjamin Discovery. I quickly moved up to a Marauder in .25, modded and shot the heck out of it. I have owed guns from Air Force, BSA, a Cricket, a Wildcat, and others I have forgotten. Most recently had an Impact MKII .25 Compact.
I could shoot lights out on squirrels at 50 yards with the guns up until the Impact. With the Impact, I sighted in my scope, stacking pellets at 30 yards or so using a bipod and bag. But trying to hit a squirrel using a tree as a brace or windowsill (don't tell my neighbors) I could not hit ANYTHING! Always over or under. I suspect it was the short length of the Compact that was the issue.
So, all that to say, do you experts think that a longer version of the Impact would work better for me, or does the shortness of the Compact not explain my accuracy issues?
Also, thoughts on Impact vs. Maverick vs. Dreamline. LCS select-fire? I am not scientific about shooting and am not likely to do a lot of tweaking. I just want to shoot hard and straight, and get plenty of shots per fill for the occasional jaunt in the woods to mow down some squirrels.
Thanks!
