Worlds 2025 in Northern Ireland

#1 Post by Mac »

This is the list of entries to the 2025 world match. We have eight Canadians registered to attend. Wish it was in the cards for me, but it is not possible this year.

Yeah England has a really big air gun following.
And more relaxed rules when it comes to airguns, i.e. you can use a suppressor, so you don't disturb your neighbours shooting in your back yard with a suitable backstop.
I saw a video of an English chap shooting chipmunks in the back yard with tannerite loaded .35 pellets with a suppressed rifle.

Do that in Canada and you are facing serious jail sentences for multiple felonies.
"What are you here for? I got 10 years for robbing a bank with a machine gun, should be out in probation in a week"
" I got 20 years for shooting a squirrel with a pellet gun, no parole for 10 years "

I'm going to keep my eyes peeled for when this competition comes out on yourtube,
If someone sees it before I do can you post a link in this thread?
I assume at a world competition level it all comes down to if you miss once your out of the top running.
Some pretty high end scopes on those rifles, this should be interesting.
