Shooting Air Rifles is like being a pubic hair on a toilet seat.
Eventually someone comes a long and P's you off.
They usually have a PCP

One of the guys after a bit of a bad shooting session said 'ah, I had hiccups for a while there'
We responded with 'we never heard you hiccup?'
Their response was 'well, they were silent ones weren't they!'

Gun is shagged, needs a service.
Gun has just been serviced, needs time to wear in.
Scope's broken.
Scope is moving in mount.
Scope mount is moving.
Scope is shooting to different POI on different mags. Bloody scope.
Silencer clipping.
Something to do with parallax.
Barrel harmonics.
Barrel needs a clean.
Just cleaned barrel, needs to bed in.
Barrel must be bent.
Cant.
Bloke next to me on the range put me off.
Too much coffee.
Not enough coffee.
Must be a duff batch of pellets.
Something to do with seals.
Trigger lubrication.
Getting tired.
Barrel harmonics.
Sun.
Clouds.
But never: poor technique, not focused, maybe a bit hungover, thinking about work or other stuff, out of practice, or generally just having an off day and should either man up and shoot properly or pee off and do something else today and come back some other time.

By the way, these may have been other people's excuses, but I have had all of them in my own mind at times. Sometimes they were true, but other times I had to have a very strict word with myself about how it was more likely that I was being a crap shot as opposed to my rifle or scope suddenly deciding to sh1t itself.

Wasn't until I purchased my first gun for years that I realized I had cataracts. Even though I point all three barrels at any target I still never manage to hit any thing. I hope one day I shall have new lens,s in my eyes then I may actually hit something that I am aiming at.
Found myself wondering if there are "custom built" contact lens,s with reticles etc for use with open sights once my eyes are sorted! Amazing what boredom can do.

It's really not that bad, it only looks that way because everyone shot better than I did.

'Poor' shooting needs no excuse, we ARE shooting and without us there would only be about 10 shooters at most events, so next time you see someone miss remember to tell them, "Well done mate, it's shooters like you that make this sport what it is.."
It's some of the top competition guys who should be making excuses, ........for wearing those flippin' gimp coats....
