plinking tips

Try to stalk up on them before they know i'm there. If im bolting them i tend to use the shotgun

[Guest Scuba1]

That's why I changed to a multi shot PCP. With those break barrel springers you only get one shot off. By the time you have fiddled another pellet in the thing the rest of the snails have run off into the undergrowth.

I like slugs and snails. bit of pest control included

 

Do you wait until they stop or just shoot at them in full stride ?? I suppose with a springer you would have to aim well ahead of them and let them run into the sot. Not an easy thing to judge, but does make it more interesting I think.

 

Who let this guy in here ehh

And for the ones using either a .177 springer or a HW 100 we have the ultimate plinking target if set up at about 25 yards. As seen on a target range in Wiltshire.

Yes I can find my way out and I left the coat on anyway.

If you shot at that with a HW100T it would wind up match wood

 

Clever bunch those Germans eh??? Shoot at a plastic bog with a German gun and it turns into match wood.

 

 

 

:D

 

 

I was on about the trees behind the bog that would be used as a backstop, but being an S410 owner that distance is'nt achievable for you, so its not a problem

Stealthy , when in a hole ...... stop digging :) You would only hit the trees because you can't hit a plastic bog at 25 yards and you would have to miss it over the top or a 177 would not get that far.

Then put your spade away

ahhh stealthy you know I like you really. We would have had a great time at that meet. You trying to hit that bog at 25 yards and me making targets by converting full cider cans into empty cider cans. :)

Not as fast as I can convert stella cans

[Guest Scuba1]

Yes you mentioned somewhere that you needed stacks of them. Makes sense to me.

Option 1

I shoot the leaves of a tree infront of a large barn. its good when there's a small breeze and you have to time it perfect to wait for the leaf to "present itself" for the shot/ You can see the hole your pellet makes really clearly afterwards

 

Option 2

I can't resist buying "6 lighters for a pound" every now and again at a market. they explode when you hit 'em

I cut a potatoe into small squares , of about 10-15 mm and chuck em on the lawn . Then take me time and pop em one by one , cause they`ve been thrown , there all over the place and no two shots are the same

 

 

me too buster,but i cut mine another two!! times, then pick em all off till there gone

[hiho 5]
