    Hi

    Good shooting - wish I could be anything like that consistent at 30yds. The best I can get with my FWB Sport 127 is 4 or 5 consecutive shots in that tight a group at that distance - then I find I just loose the concentration required. Wonder if you are using a rest of some sort - I just shoot from a sitting position on the ground.

    I guess that shooting standing unsupported, you should always zero of a bench rest to reduce all those nasty flyers.

    Anyway keep practising, i'm sure you will get there in the end.

    Many years ago I used to shoot in the Bedworth & Nuneaton leage for the Co-Op club Pete Eastbury is a name I remember well from those times. I didn't realise they still did bell target shooting, I thought all the pub type league shooting had bitten the dust. I also used to use FWB 300/300S/300SU and lastly a Walther LG Match. Good times those. I packed up when I was 23 (30yrs ago) because I went on to shift work and could no longer commit properly to a team.
    He who dies with the most toys wins. Flying, shooting, fishing and sports cars, what more could a man want.
