[QUOTE="Cappy124, post: 529780, member: 28198"] My appoligies to LRH and the OP for getting off track on the thread. If you are in a backyard setting, 25 to 30 yrd shooting where the discharge of firearms (.22) is illegal and the silencing of firearms is illegal (USA). then choose a nonfirearm product ie a pellet rifle. Not a toy, most toys I have found shoot water or corkes.( they can be fun with the right targets). This is what I have found after trial and error helps me. Use round nose pellets, heaver in weight seems to work better. Check and tighten all screws often and the more you shoot the better you get no matter what kind or priced gun you have. Use small targets or targets with a small aim point, aim small, hit small and try to learn how to control your breathing as you shoot. Trigger control is also something to work on, learn where you trigger breaks. The real point is to have fun and when and if you decide to go to Montana and shoot dirt poodles at hundreds of yards you more than likely will have to upgrade your equipment.:rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
