Poor pic i know, i but ive just got a Tactical XL.

 

My first rifle, i really like it and after a fair bit of practice im pretty good withg at around 30-35 yards, maybe a tennis ball area on 5 shots. I know its nothing special but what should i be trying for with this gun?

You want want to try and get them with about a 50p sort of size, thats if you intent to shoot live quarry. Firsty you should be trying to get groups, dont worry if its in the center of the target, as long as all the pellets are landing very close to each other, then you can go about geting the gun at perfect zero.

 

I considering buying that rifle, just gotta get some cash.

 

And btw a fun way to practise is to try and shoot cocktail sticks out the ground (its f*****g hard!)

Quick update......

Been doing a bit of shooting at a freinds indoor range hes got set up in an old chicken shed.

Have been managing to put groups of 5 shots in to a ping pong ball size space at 35 yards

Have bought a tin of Air Arms Fields, they seem to have helped a lot. W hat do the rest of you think of these pellets?
