hi all, im brand new to the shooting scene so much so that i had never fired a gun of any sort up untill 2 weeks ago.
iv now developed what can only be described as a near obssesion with all things airgunning!! iv bought every magazine in w.h smiths and scanned the net till my eyes start streaming ..
on the advice of my brother-in-law iv just bought a new edgar bros model 60 (£100), which he claims is a good starter rifle,but im not over impressed.
iv been reading all your posts for a few days now and you all seem a knowledgable bunch so im looking for advice on getting up to a decent standard so that i feel confident to go hunting and dispatch animals cleanly..
im very lucky in that on the way home from the gunsmiths,i stopped at a large house with acres of wooded grounds and was given permission to shoot rabbits and squirrels.
at the moment all i do is target shooting from about 30 yards and have no consistency in my grouping so i'll leave the critters alone for now, but im itching to get my first tree rat.
my current set up
edgar model 60 .22
4x20 scope (no laughing,pressie from bro-in law)
wasp pellets
i will upgrade as standard improves and budget allows (love the looks and reviews of aa410) but any pointers will be a great help.
