marlin1 Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 Check PW every night after work to view new posts. Seen so many threads from new members and old asking for advice, followed by this has been asked before, try post ?. Viewed today's post from weejohn about floating barrel, seen mentioned lots of times but never paid much attention to. Then thought what is a floating barrel. Was going to add a new post and ask the question but thought try the search bar..... Got the answer straight away from previous posts.

SNAKEBITE Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 I agree to a certain extent, however when I brought up a similar comment a while back it was pointed out that due to the "limited" scope of a shooting forum the same questions will pop up over and over again. To just do a search or point out threads that answer the question does limit the banter and progression of thoughts and discussions. Hope this makes sense. So which is better, .177 or .22?

Mungler Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 I totally agree. What is a floating barrel though? Snakey, it's .177 for foxes all day long and you know it - mind you PCP .177 or springer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is better .177 or .22? is a bit like asking how long is a piece of string..... Thread will go on and on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazzyboi Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 If every person on here used the search bar for everything they needed to know, then it would be a very quiet forum You got to remember it is a shooting forum, it would be abit pointless having a forum if you were frowned apon for asking questions. You might has well have just built up a knowledge base of questions and answers, then host it on the web for people to read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naddan28 Posted June 28, 2007 Report Share Posted June 28, 2007 .20 for foxes out to 80yds .177 is only good for foxes at 60yds IMO Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
