Hi folks,

After a long time away from air guns, I am back and enjoying myself again.

In about 2011 I made a bad choice and decided to sell some of my air guns to finance a new interest in archery. I sold my Alpha Proj pistol and a fully customized 2240 in .177 caliber. I mean fully customized. Wasn't anything left to do to it. Still regret these sales. I still have my partially customized 2240 in .22 caliber and am waiting for some stock to arrive at CSS so I can get at it again.

One thing I've found interesting since I started shooting again though. I have found the key to accuracy as I get older.

Bigger Bulls eyes!!!

When I was young, I always used dime size bulls eyes. Then I went to quarter size and eventually to loonie size. Now after being away so long, I find a bulls eye about the size of a hockey puck is good. Can hit it every time. Well...most of the time. Eventually I suppose I will have to by a larger pellet trap just to fit the bulls eye. :D

Anyway, it's nice to be back on here.

Thanks

Welcome~~

As my eyes get older and not as sharp as before too, I use scopes almost all the time even for less than 10yards indoor target sbootings... Then just opposite to your bigger bullseye, I didn't draw a eye-circle but just draw a + on the paper as I aim it using the reticle directly via my scope.... [emoji38]
