Anyone big on 10m air rifle?

[woopwoop]

I've been thinking about an air rifle for a while, I can see the novelty wearing off after a while though so not sure if it's a dumb purchase really.

10m target shooting doesn't give much room to grow if you know what I mean.

Anyone who started it big on 10m air rifle targets? Or how long did it take you to get bored?

you might be better off taking up darts
I could see 10m shooting getting rather boring

Ever considered air pistol? We have members who have shot air pistol for 25 years and longer.

I religiously put 60 shots down the air pistol every week but it is still piss boring, the air rifle was fun when I was ten.

[Norton]

Nope.

Thought about it and dismissed the idea. Was bored just thinking about

Technique for .22 and centerfire.

I used to use a BB gun to control pigeons and English sparrows around the farm.

I'd say 10 meters was a pretty average distance. Much further the BB would veer off, anyway, so sighting on paper for about 21 feet was my general modus operandi.

Could be good to introduce young kids on but that's the only thing I'd use one for.

If I need to hit something at 10m I'll just walk over

[Triang]

Boring as bat s**t IMO...

I have just started air pistol and bought me a steyr LP10 recently. It is challenging to keep the pellets within 9 and 10 ring, and I am loving it.

Pistol could be a good time.

I've never done it with an air rifle but it does seem like it would be boring compared to the 'full power' alternatives.
