    .22 shooting is easy....NOT !

    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.?
