.22 Air Pistol 6 Yard MPL Postal Competition.

[Retracted_Yeti]

Come on Roy - .22 Wobblies shoot much better than .177 Wobblies and Tempests shoot very well - I bought a .22 Tempest today so lets see how we get on eh?

........a .22 Hurricane with proper adjustable sights is a positive advantage and nobody is going to turn up with a recoilless .22 are they ?

Tell amac about it and maybe he will join you so you can have your own personal .22 Wobbly battle

Oh, go on then.......

Expect a paypal payment very shortly!

Cheers.

Roy.

I noticed when shooting a .22 Webley that it was easier to shoot than a .177 of the same type and so with a larger size pellet making a bigger hole it should be like shooting fish in a barrel with a .22 at only 6 yards.

Having just shot my first round of the .22 MPL competition with my Model 5 I have not found this to be the case - I shot the .177 first round much better!

To be fair the Model 5 is still dieseling a fair bit ( I need to get the excuses prepared) following a strip down but I think the main difference is because I used an SSP for the 177 round and a "kicker" for the .22 round.

Most .22 air pistols are spring powered "kickers" so lower .22 score's may be expected.?

Thanks Bob - you could do well with a Hurricane.

I tried a .22 Hurricane last night and wished I had used it instead of the Model 5 !

Don't forget to let me have your postal address !

I have just completed the last of my cards for the January .22 6 yard MPL postal series.

The cards were shot with my Grey Plastic Grip Original Model 5 ( stamped as being made in April 1966) following the fitting of a new end cap and a set of the correct type of sights and I used Hobby pellets.

I did take a few shots with an old .22 Hurricane after I had shot with the Model 5 and I was very surprised at how good it was. The trigger did not feel that good to be honest but I let the pistol jump around after I had released the shot and to my surprise all the shots were inside the black.
