But please do not, for want of better words, 'look down on' those people who do not possess your skills. To the vast majority of springer shooters, mastering the beast is an integral part of the fun and character of the rifle. The pleasure derived from mastering the rifle and seeing your own skill level rise accordingly can be very satisfying. It is, to the majority, a superb way of developing shooting skills.
