    No problem Rob,

    I dug my HW30S out tonight , paid my entry fee, and shot my first round (July) tonight.

    The HW30S is a lovely rifle to shoot - easy to cock and super smooth to shoot.
    Rossendale Target Shooting Club. Every Tuesday and Thursday evening 7 - 10pm.

    Shot my first 2 practice cards tonight, scored a 32 on both, so i hope to see an improvement !

    Shot using the 30 with falcon domed pellets.

    Rob,

    From my (and many other chappies I have known) experiences - a very rough rule of thumb :

    After a hestitant start, the initial improvement is rapid to ca. 80 - 85 %.

    Improvement to ca. 85 - 90 % is slower, but steady.

    Improvement from 90 % on is a slog, and much dedication and practice is needed - put in the effort, and you will be rewarded

    There is an empirical rule that applies to many things on how long it takes to be very good indeed - 10,000 hours seems to be the magic number.

    So, after 10,000 hours of useful practice, you should be very good indeed

    There is a chappie here on 'BBS (Mr. Robin Carter), and he is a font of wisdom WRT target shooting & coaching shooting sports. His wife is an exceptionally talented shooter, who has represented Great Britain internationally.

    I highly recommend you buy his most excellent book 'Air Rifle Target Shooting', available here :

    Have fun

    Best regards
