Before sights were adjustable, shooters knew how to adjust their sight picture to accomplish the same thing. I’m not an air gun hunter, but does the Pyramyd Air site have a link to Dr. Beeman’s chart for necessary energy for humane kills of various game? I don’t just bench rest and shoot at paper. And yes,….the “movement” can be a distractor. The stories I’m hearing from my Dad about driving this car at 100 mph are really something.

Unfortunately my eyes aren’t that great and I would like some magnification. You know I can’t wait for that Marauder to get in your hands. But see what happens if you have them sitting side by side to a German or Enlish made gun. RS-LYMAN-GPR Rear sight, semi-buckhorn for barrels up to 15/16", Lyman Great Plains Rifle. It still had headers on it but they where piped into dual free flowing catalitic converters and 3″ exhaust. What was left on the street was the cars that were fast and could be driven just like they were originally designed. Scope: I was using one of the newer Leapers’ models with etched reticle — https://www.pyramydair.com/s/a/UTG_2_16x44_AO_Accushot_SWAT_Rifle_Scope_EZ_TAP_Ill_Mil_Dot_Reticle_1_4_MOA_30mm_Tube_Weaver_Rings/5757#refId=32ee2a51033131c10c26fc61f0fff2fb. After switching to the HO kit, they opened up to the 50mm’s range.

Anyway, bet to all and good shooting, too. We all call similar things different names you know. And the main thing have multiple aim points for precise shots.

I thought Kentucky windage was just a general term for holdover.

The graphics give me a better understanding of how the Modoc is meant to be used. I hope you forgive my interruption, but as far as I remeber, rule of thumb is 10J at the target per 1 kilo of the target, but that, of course, does not mean that shots must not be well-placed.

I’ve just recently — within the past few months — started thinking of the reticle as the front sight — just like when I shoot a pistol.

When the warm weather returns I should be ready to get into some competitive fun.

This is where it helps to own just a few guns. They may seem simple but there are subtleties to be learned, if you will just try them.

If the target is “far” away I start adding a bit of elevation to bias the shot in my favour. Knowing your gun and your skill and using common sense. Alot to think about.

All were on big hole, and fairly symmetrical. . I can’t remember what we were talkig about. I believe the groups may well tighten with the “right” fit. You guys made me think of stuff that just comes natural anymore. But the light catches the scallops and seems to be aimed straight back to your eye. Once you get to 2500psi you’ll realize you don’t wanna go much higher. So just a little commentary on the airgunning journey from myself, somebody whos put his head down and pushed through all the mistakes and assumptions, despite my best efforts and knowledge, there are limitations to things and acknowledging them will make you a better shooter and hunter, as The Godfather has long conveyed to many deaf ears. Start them out with iron sights.

That will take you a long way. Theres only one hitch, im going to have to make very good use of those first 30 or so shots… I still have to get a pump! How to cheat when you really want an airgun! Reminded me of the horns on buckhorn sights that I’ve seen where previous owners placed marks to align the front sights so they could be more repeatable and minimize guess work. Always hate waiting for them to get there but love it when they do. Pretty much I asure you it will be a eye opener.

-I never responded back. And I use to call it applying the trigger. If they made a scope that had multiple close spaced aim points and it was a let’s say 16 magnification scope. What I’m going to say is what we as kids growing up and or dad’s out hunting or just getting together to shoot called Kentuky windage. Doesn’t damage much meat and they go straight down. I put on an LPA sight and at least I know how well I can shoot the gun with no surprises. And now a segue to something only remotely related. The lethals are stupidly expensive and while I did have a good experience with them in a breakbarrel pistol, it was actually a horrible suggestion for a magazine fed co2 gun, they are long and might not fit and the chance they are accurate enough isnt really worth the price.Two totally different worlds. You ask a question that’s common among older shooters. Did you ever hunt in the woods before deciding to compete in feild target? I can live with that, yessirrr. I did not know about the proper use of buckhorn sights, though; that was pretty interesting; so thanks, and keep up the good work. Just goes to show that fiction well written can reveal truth better than non-fiction stats and fine detail. Now I ain’t no Billy Dixon, (even Billy never claimed to be no Billy, Luck helps. Follow up on the pellets. Wasnt keeping in mind that not everybody hunts at all. I have grown accustomed to my Titan (trigger tuned with a quality RC bearing, 5x8x2.5mm). RDNA I recently went back to an iron sight when the point of impact would suddenly change with whatever scope I put on a shoulder stocked 1377. Are there ever calibrated front sights that help with the amount of the front post showing for different distances? With the shoulder stock it’s hard to get a thumb spot weld. But exsperience and talking to knowledgeable people that have been in similar situations sure makes it easier.”. I know what you mean – it isn’t about charts and FPE – its all about knowing what your equipment is capable of and staying within your and the equipment’s effective range. I will also show you how to use other open sights to hit targets at longer distances than they are designed for. They weren’t showing off, this was a meat-on-the-table or be hungry situation. What I have seen that kills the pumps is dirt and dust. Elmer Keith demonstrated the ability to hit man-sized targets at unbelievable distances with a handgun, and when I read his exploits in the 1960s,  I didn’t know such shots were impossible. Five bangs later, I’m a believer. That description of shooting a squirrel was too graphic for this blog. If the shooter wants to raise the strike of the round to hit a target at an intermediate distance, he elevates the tip of the front sight to the middle of the horns of the buckhorn rear sight. That’s why you don’t read about graphic hunting stories or see graphic images here. And for some reason they tend to break the rules in their performance. A couple are shot in open fields, namely the Rochester Brooks Gun Club, sight of the Crosman All American Challenge, formerly the Northeast Regionals(and if I may pat myself on the back I placed second at the event in Hunter Div.

Sights are only “correct” at the near-zero and far-zero range, every other range needs compensation. And what’s cool is if the conditions stay the same and the target is at the same location how easy it is to hit over and over with the same holds applied. Since I never had one, was always curious when I would see them on vintage rifles. Thanks again! All this talk of “leading” and “holdover” and such reminds me of some VERY personal life lessons, delivered early but not necessarily listened to ’till much later. So now what to look at when you make that precise shot. But if had that car at a time that was not good. Exact distance estimation (if “exact” was possible without a laser range finder) isn’t required for most of my shooting and I don’t even think about it.

I was attempting to depress the grip safety and holding it in before pulling back the hammer to cock it. http://www.crosman.com/get-hunting/hunting-resources/airgun-capabilities-guide, http://www.crosman.com/pdf/CrosmanAirgunPelletCapabilitiesChart20120713.pdf, http://www.crosman.com/connect/caaftc_wrapup/?hvid=2X1nZ0, https://www.pyramydair.com/s/a/Shooters_Ridge_Monkey_Bag_Gun_Rest/2793#refId=32ee2a51033131c10c26fc61f0fff2fb, https://www.pyramydair.com/s/a/UTG_2_16x44_AO_Accushot_SWAT_Rifle_Scope_EZ_TAP_Ill_Mil_Dot_Reticle_1_4_MOA_30mm_Tube_Weaver_Rings/5757#refId=32ee2a51033131c10c26fc61f0fff2fb, Dan Wesson Valor 1911 CO2 pellet pistol: Part 3, Springfield Armory M1A Underlever Pellet Rifle: Part 2. level were you shooting at with the 25yds.? On todays subject of buckhorn sights someone mentioned that they could be considered the first mil dot application. It would depend on the shooter.

How do they have the lanes set up where you feild target shoot? And I already have a feeling where it will go on the blog when everybody starts talking shot placement and required fpe to humanly take a pest or game. Read that even trained military people are often off by up to 17% on their estimates. All natural ways of blending in with the surroundings. $4.95. Also be aware of scope ranging shift depending on temperature. Once again, necessity was the mother of invention. Now, this guy IS inherently dumb ( hes a nice guy but puffs his chest, argues about anything, and never knows what he’s talking about ), maybe not such a nice guy, but I still felt bad for him that making loud noises was the extent of his airgunning accomplishments, and no doubt ever will. In other words close to reticle center.

Not from what you haven’t seen yet. Normal talk on shot placement to someone who regularly hunts is not normal for a person who wouldn’t dream of killing any animal. It’s your money but I will say this.

Oh yes I remember. Something went wrong. You will be sorry if you don’t!! Copyright © 1999-20 PyramydAir.com.
