James Doyle 59 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 I was Wondering is there an ammo that you can shoot pigeons in sheds with. I Got ammo of the local dealer but its crap whats the best you lads recommend Quote Link to post
TWOTWOTHREE 152 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Hi You say crap ? What specific round are u looking for? i wouldn't fancy shooting any type in my sheds it would be blowing a gale after a while and rather leaky,I personsly would use the airgun in doors I wouldn't be keen on flirting lead about dodging richochets, Atb Quote Link to post
halamrose 24 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Maybe .22 shot shells? Is it the dealer or the ammo which is crap? Quote Link to post
TWOTWOTHREE 152 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Ahh I hear what your saying, I've heard they are absolute cack,there was a write up in a shooting mag they said they were a waste of time unless the quarry was two feet away. can't a good airgun see to them if I get asked to clear a few out of the collecting yard I use one and its spot on probably a lot cheaper Atb Quote Link to post
doddsy1970 9 Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Your only choice is an air rifle...... You cannot/should not be using live rounds in any enclosed space because of the danger of ricochets. Quote Link to post
James Doyle 59 Posted October 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 the ammo isnt great to be honest you have to be 4-5 ft away to kill like Quote Link to post
Lewis Ste 245 Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Buy a decent weirauch springer hw80 or hw97k second hand and Aslong as you don't bounce them of the floor you will resell them for the same price and the will shoot out to 40 yards no problem Quote Link to post
paulus 26 Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 22 shot shells are a waste of time as already said either invest in an air rifle or borrow one Quote Link to post
James Doyle 59 Posted October 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 them shot shells are dirt. any other ammo poeple use Quote Link to post
filzee 0 Posted October 16, 2012 Report Share Posted October 16, 2012 as already stated a decent airrifle can work wonders for those tricky situations Quote Link to post
scavenger 0 Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 I use a 9mm garden gun that I was given years ago. Have used it round the buildings for pigeons and rats. I know an air rifle is just as effective but I find the garden gun a lot more fun. Quote Link to post
