    Is Long range shooting with .177 cal posible?

    Is it possible to get a decent group at over 20 meters with .177 ammo

    For sure! We have other members on here from the US of A

    If you're asking about your Crosman Fury, I don't think we get that model over here. But it seems a pretty light weight springer for 1000-1200 FPS...

    Perhaps a lighter spring, and aim for a little under 800 FPS.

    Might make the gun a lot easier to shoot accurately.

    Although 60 yards + for any springer is quite far out

    Don't want to modify anything. As is it shoots at 1000 to 1200 fps and is a springer which I think makes way too much noise to use around nosey neighbors and heaven forbid there cat wonders into my yard but oh well. Not really!

    Got my accuracy on target at 40 yards. After that I think I need to switch to .22 cal
