I spend hours crawling around the countryside hoping something will sniff my backside. So 20 minutes ... result.

I think maybe you've all got the OP wrong here.

I think Doe's on to it.

I think there's a language issue here and the lad's come across as a bigger villain than he intended.

I think he's basically saying that a good quality, modern PCP with the right batch of the right pellet ... off a bagged rest off a bench ... 5p at 30 yards isn't a great thing. We'd all agree with that. We'd want 5p in those conditions ( no wind ... indoors ) at much greater ranges.

I'd give the lad the benefit at this point to be honest.

We've jumped all over him and mentioned he may put others off ... We may be acting a little hostile to a guy who just wants to get involved in the BBS community and hit slightly off the mark he was aiming at.
