if you're going to try it, make sure you have a large target such as a 1.5x1m cardboard so that you know by how much you are missing.otherwise you will get nervous and give up) get your elevation first. i've seen a couple trying and stop because they shoot at something big which they expect to hit and when they dont they just give up. however those pellets are usually landing in some sort of pattern down range. it will be very interesting to seeing it done with a springer.
