    Impressive shooting, and with 20 shots, truly representative !
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    Sniper-wolf, that's excellent shooting mate. I would you to see what groups you get bench rested as well as to try it out to 150 yards.

    Thanks for the comment.

    Dont think I would like to go much more than 100yds with sub 12fpe, I will try to increase the range a bit more to see what happens.

    Nice shooting Mr Wolf. It's amazing what can be done with so little power. I noticed that the pellets still appear to be entering properly nose first so must be in stable flight, with the benefit of a spirit level and a bench rest who knows what's possible.

    Thumbs up incredible shooting

    the picture of the target card is very encouraging
    had to bring this back up as this is amazing for three reasons 1 its a first attempt i believe and its amazingly accurate at that, 2 OFF THE KNEE and 3 it was done with a sub 12ftlbs rifle .....


    well if i could shoot this well all the time i would take up the sport seriously, very well done man and please up date when you have done some more shooting.
    If i didnt have a Falcon i would have a Rapid
