    20yd/25yd benchrest

    My club members have been shooting 25 yard benchrest for the past 2 years now and we have found that a good pre-charged air rifle such as the AA400 in .177 will almost match the accuracy of a .22 rimfire rifle off the bench at 25 yards. On the 25 yard NSRA rimfire target a good air rifle can average 99+ as long as the correct ammo. is used and a good high mag scope
    The Midland Shooting League is considering introducing 20 yard/25yard bench rest for next winter, beginning September 2009
    However they will only do so if there is a demand for the discipline
    For ranges that only have a 20 yard facility, a scaled down version of the target will be used

    If any BBS readers are members of a rimfire or airgun club which does not already shoot in the midland league and would like to field teams of 3 for the winter season, please let me know
