Scores Spring series 2015 MPL and gasser series

[zooma]

I have noticed that some of the MPL pistol shooters are recording scores higher than those recorded by the Gasser pistol shooters.

This is not particularly unusual at 6 yards, but it does make you wonder why we all stump up so much cash for PCP match pistols when some of the better spring powered and SSP pistols can produce results that can be just as good - and sometimes better !

I am also aware that CO2 powered air pistols always seem a little "kinder" or are rather more "tolerant" when compared with PCP match pistols that can punish a poorly executed shot rather more severely.

We have club members that can produce excellent results at 10 meters with their spring powered Feinwerkbau Model 65 and 80 pistols and others that can also score as well with their SSP pistols so this is not a phenomenon that only affects 6 yard shooters.

We also have members and guests that shoot their Feinwerkbau Model 2, C10 and C20 and Walther CP2, CP3 and CPM-1 CO2 pistols just as well ( and sometimes better) than their PCP match pistols.

It is certainly less tiring to shoot PCP or CO2 air pistols than MPL class spring or SSP air pistols but they do not automatically produce higher scores.

Any thoughts.......?
