    I have got three 10m target pistols, all in .177 flavour, I just didn't know what air pistol competitions used .22 calibre.

    What is the slow fire competition?

    Cheers,

    Mark.

    Its for shooting slow-fire matches. Or actual matches like Swan Vesta if you are good enough.
    Too many guns, or not enough time?

    Hi Mark, as far as I know there is no specific competition for .22 match air-pistol. That is curious thing about the Aeron pistol. I can only think that it was made to allow shooting .22 rimfire slow-fire disciplines on the same targets with the same projectile hole, but with an air-pistol.

    Or it may have been designed for air-pistol 'silhouette' in countries in which there is no limit for air-pistol power. I do not know the 'full power' power of the Aeron, maybe it is 8 or 9 fpe, in which case it would still be relatively flat shooting, but with a heavier impact than a .177 at longer ranges, which would help knock the silhouettes down.

    Maybe since the CP1 pistol is available in .22 there is room for a new target discipline for .22 only?

    Perhaps slow-fire at PL15 targets outdoors? Silhouettes at 30 yards?

    RMTC did once run a .22 cal. 6 yard MPL pistol postal comp', but Co2 pistols weren't allowed, obviously.
