Three rifles take on the feather

Hi lads,

 

Here is a short 7 minute clip of just some of what I have been up to over the past few weeks since the Hunting Life Meet.

 

In this clip I am using 3 different air rifles in 2 calibres to shoot corvids, pigeons and a long range collared dove.

I don't mind either calibre buddy but my favourite is by far the .22 calibre.

 

My next rifles will be in .22 calibre for sure.

Great vid Si.....nice to see the diff hold overs with the .177 100 and EB XVI .22 at roughly same distance....shows to people how much of a diff the .177 is compared to the .22

Yes true Steve,

 

It takes a lot more knowledge of your combo to make accurate shots at different ranges with a .22 calibre pellet.

 

Sitting on your zero is fine but making long range shots is where the skill is in with .22 calibre shooting.

 

I think that's why you get the old rumour that so many believe in that a .177 is more accurate than a .22. This rumour is utter rubbish and both calibres are as accurate as each other.

 

Where the in- accuracies come in is with the shooter themselves not having the practice and understanding of the ballistics involved to master the calibre.
