I took the Pro Sport out again last night to my brothers permission. On arrival I checked my zero then spent the next hour or so shooting targets. I must have been having an off day the other day, either that or it was because the rifle was brand new, but last night I was managing pellet on pellet at 30 yards in an unsupported sitting position in moderate winds.

 

My brother brought over an ill kit that he had picked up, the poor thing had very bad myxomatosis, it could hardly even stand up I decided the humane thing to do was put it out of its misery.

 

The light started to fade we decided to take a drive in the car (the permission is 200 acres) to see if we could get a few rabbits. An hour and a half later we had 4 rabbits in the bag, including one we both shot at the same time (what are the chances of that!), all clean kills.

 

We used the squeeze technique on all the rabbits to gut them as soon as they had been shot. Its very easy (except large buck rabbits, they take some squeezing!) and a much cleaner way of doing it.

 

So it looks like me and the Pro Sport might get along after all.

 

Next time we go out I will make sure I take a camera and get some photos of the action!

Nice one Flow, as John as said good to see you now getting on with the best springer out the box on the planet .

 

Quality rifle.

 

Well done on the rabbits and being humane on the mixy baby.

Do you think there would be a case of discrimination against lefthanded shooters levelled at AIR ARMS?

 

Without any intentional big-headed bullshit, l reckon l could make a Prosport sing downrange to one-hole groups at 50-metres. But, I'm unable to, thanks to it being unavailable and unusable to me.

 

Fabulous rifle. The finest looking air rifle there is.
