Badgerdaddy 24 Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Just joined and wanted to say hi. I'm taking up the sport a little later on in life and at 58 have discovered something amazing. I have joined a local club and managed to get a permission all in 6 months so feel blessed. Currently using a Hatsan Gladius in .22 with a Falcon T50. Admittedly it's a little heavy but is blisteringly accurate. I am sticking to quarry at 20-25m distance at the moment which is where I am confident of a clean kill. However, I need advice on correct hold over calculation for longer distances. How to do this in very plain English is what I need as I am not an expert. Any way, good to be here and look forward to speaking to you all in the future. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jonjon79 13,358 Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 Welcome to the site mate. That's quite a scope When I still had mine, I kept getting distracted - Turning the mag up and watching the birds messing around in the hedgerows Chairgun is good plotting trajectories. Or you can do what I do - just put a load of pellets through it at different ranges. Either way, have fun Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Badgerdaddy 24 Posted September 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 Hi Jon Thanks for the welcome. The scope has not been used in anger yet just at the club where I shoot of an evening but is so well made and works just as well. I do need to look at an additional IR for it as the built in one is a bit low on power. I did look at chair gun but have to say, found it a little,complicated to understand. So many abbreviations to work out!!! I think the mass pellets think is going to work the best and also look at what other shooters use. I have already found that Diabolo Field and JSB Exacts work well but still have some other popular makes to try. Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
