Learning Holdovers?

[albert64 1,882]

i've always used .22 and took rabbits at 60yds with no trouble, its just taking the time learning your holdover/under

but i've bit the bullet and treated myself to an airwolf in .177 the first .177 iv'e ever owned

its shot placement not calibre that counts and i dont think i'll struggle with that it was putting one hole groups at 42yds

there's enough on here to show what a .177 can do

Haha yer or they just don't know much about air gunning at all which is my thoughts, back to Internet shopping!

Hmmm ...hey. I've got it! maybe I'll just try .22 out and see for myself!

I'm a newbie myself, but if you have neighbours, hollowpoint pellets might prevent over-penetration? Any thoughts, anyone?

Try .20 calliper 50/50 but 177 is the best. IMO

Use what you've got to good effect regardless of cal., learn your rifles capabilities and your own and you won't go wrong!

 

Cheers
