I posted this a few days back on another site and forgot to post over here, but since I know there are some airgun guys here as well I figured I would drop this here as well. Since my original posting the stock just keeps getting better and I am shooting this rifle better then I ever have.
I...
1st group of the year.
The time was around 9:30 pm. The shooting conditions were:
Comfortable in my finished basement with Back to the Future 3 on in the background
71°F
21.6 °C
Humidity 42%
Wind Speed I may have broken wind if that counts
Visibility from one side of my basement to the...
I myself have reached the point of does it even matter and it’s hard but worst case it doesn’t hurt. Best case your vote helps or changes the tide. So don’t let apathy win the day. Go vote.
I've had my HW95 for a long time. At least 15 years or so. It had a few teething issues out of the gate but turned into one of my favorite and great shooting rifles, it has, however, always had the most plain uninspired stock of any of my other air rifles. So I finally did something about it...
I have the luxury of being able to work remotely and shoot my airguns more or less when I please. I also have a fairly long indoor shooting lane of about 20 yards or so and being able to grab a gun and throw 10 or 20 shots down range on a whim is a blessing I very much enjoy. Well today I took...
So I have had a fairly crappy couple or three weeks so shooting always clears my head and focuses me and apparently crappy life weeks make for fantastic shooting days because, at least for me, I was ON tonight!!! I was so accurate today I shot these targets into tomorrow!!! :D :P These are the...
So I rarely get a chance to get the air guns out past 20 yards and frankly much past 35-40 my skill level starts to drop off like a barrel down Niagra Falls with most non PCP air guns. Today, however, I took a me day and went out to the range and stretched out my 97K and didn't do too badly...
I have been dorking around with my Diana 54 figuring out and fixing issues, tuning it up etc. so I have been spending a lot of time behind that rifle and a scope so I figured I needed an iron sight palate cleanser if you will. :D
So I pulled out another gun I recently did some maintenance on...
So I find my Diana 54 a little challenging to shoot. I don't know if its the false sense of security from the lack of recoil or the fact that I simply don't have a lot of time behind the rifle or that the trigger although very smooth and light just doesn't come as natural to me as others. The...
So I have a good kid in general. We have been quite blessed with her overall, but tonight she did my inner gun geek proud.
So I taught her to shoot with a suppressed and scoped 10/22 so optics are her comfort zone. I have exposed her to iron sights and she has done a little bolt action .22...
THE COMMIES' ARE COMING! THE COMMIES' ARE COMING!!!.......or at least their dimensionally challenged, 2D, itty bitty, paper versions are. :D
I throw together some fun targets now and then, Zombies, Battleship etc. and I threw together a larger version of my "army men" target today...
BATTLESTATIONS!!!!! :D
This target was created to play Battleship. I have a couple versions of it. This one I upsized the hit zones a bit so my daughter and I could shoot it. It was NEVER meant to be shot with iron sights.........but I have the day off and the gun I had laying next to my...
I have slowly taught my daughter to shoot and she does well with .22LR rifles, very well actually. Although she has shot an airgun here or there I haven't really taught her those as of yet since cocking them etc. is more of a chore. Well I recently built a second Air Arms S200T specifically...
All right so I took a long lunch today and actually got out to do some longer range stuff. I was primarily going to the range to run some defensive handguns and I didn't have a lot of time but I was able to run 2 10 shot groups at somewhere between 50-60 yards. I only had time to run the two...
So my first air rifle was a knock off plastic stocked Red Ryder'esqe lever gun in the way back time. I was probably 7. I still have it. It's beat to hell and rusty and likely doesn't work.
My next air rifle didn't come until many moons later, That was probably around 2000 or so. It was a...
I know its a little late but first chance I've had to post. I don't own a rifle in maple so the white target or white streaks in the HW97 will have to do. :D
So recognizing that you have a problem is the first step. When your wife tells you to get into some cheaper hobbies, like heroin, you might have a problem. Ignoring the problem and soldiering on is the next step. DON’T JUDGE ME!!! Look I have never made any bones about my financial sense...
I figured I would show my range setup just in case there are folks out there who are getting into air gun shooting or are just looking to put a little tech in their shooting.
I am very blessed to have a very nice finished basement 60 foot run wall to wall. So I have basically a 20 yard indoor...
I know with the current unpleasantness afoot more and more gunnies are trying there hand at making itty bitty holes with air guns instead of firearms for the time being. I cannot stress enough that like firearms, air guns may not like a given load even if it is a quality pellet, not unlike high...
