AR177 588 Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 its not big taking long range shots more risk of wounding quarry With any shot there is a risk of wounding, with practice (on non live targets) long range shots are just as viable as any other shot Atb Adam Quote Link to post

gibbo1973 187 Posted June 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 toby i never said it was clever i meant a honest report which circumstances come to those who need to take long shots ie lamp shy etc ,and duncan your comments are what i didnt want i wanted people with experience to tell me how they shape up in the field out of interest and you sound like youve not got a cock to measure a honest thread for people who want to show their capabilites of which ive asked for not your bickering or sarcasm Quote Link to post
AirgunGuy 362 Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 I only really shoot at night as that's what suits my permissions. Nothing spectacular but 40-45 yards is probably about the longest shot i've taken and had a clean kill...and is as far as i would confidently shoot out to at night. That was kneeling and off sticks PS. sub 12FPE air rifles Quote Link to post
