PeskyWabbits 464 Posted February 27, 2016 Report Share Posted February 27, 2016 Well, the weather is crap, or I am at work. Then it is dark by the time I get home. Got a scope to zero in. Local club visited by Atlantis. So with no 'er Indoors to police me, benefits of solitary life, indoor range it is. The loft was the most likely solution but chockablock with car related junk and roof supports getting in the way, so... A not uncommon feature in a West Yorkshire house is the flying freehold. Mine is over next door's kitchen and makes for quite a long run in one direction. So... substantial wall protection to the featured room. Mine is a room of shame, a started but unfinished re-vamp that has stalled. A pellet trap made from a quality street tin, lined with wire wool and foam, sitting in a box of rags, in front of an old floor cushion, in front of plasterboard sheets, so hopefully... 28' range. Hopefully Mrs next door just thinks I am chopping wood. Pesky 1 Quote Link to post

There is a new indoor range at Doncaster which is open until 10pm and has a 45mt range which is not too far for you. https://www.(!64.56:886/doncasterairgunrange/?fref=ts Phil Quote Link to post
