Anyone else an Air Gun shooter?
I have a RAW HM1000x in .25, Cricket Bullpup in .22, FWB P44 10 meter pistol, HW95L in .20 and an Air Arms TX200 MK3. I like competition shooting, plinking and pest
management. I've got a 40 yard range set up outside my shop. I'll try to load up some photos

Thanked: 4Yep, serious high power competitor, bought a Walther air rifle (scuba gun) at Camp Perry 12 years ago, shoot it in my house. Really improves high power technique, especially off-hand. And operating costs are next to nothing.

Will be, I,m going to be waging war on critters against my yard and garden, and the neighborhood is nit happy about guns going off early in the morning, so silent and deadly once I figure out which rifle will do the job. Tc

Welswizard you are right, it's all about technique when it comes to air guns. Powder burners often have a hard time adjusting to air power, especially "Springers".

I have a springer RWS in .22. Love it but it does take a light touch to shoot. I really want an fx at some point.
Go find an adventure.....

Txshooter,
Your RWS should have an adjustable trigger. A light trigger pull is fine for benchrest and other competition shooting but could be dangerous on a hunt.

Whispering death for pest. I shoot in the back yard and indoors all year long. No long trips out to the range and ammo is cheap!

I have a little Daisy Model #120 in .17 that all three of my kids learned to shoot with. Not the fanciest but it's accurate. Even thought it's against the law here to fire one within the city limits we shot in the backyard all the time.
We had 'pigeon problems' at work and my store manager would pay me to come in real early in the morning and pop as many as I could before customers would start to come in.Last edited by cudarunner; 03-09-2016 at 09:05 PM.
Our house is as Neil left it- an Aladdins cave of 'stuff'.
