[QUOTE="Bull_Mtn, post: 1937756, member: 105447"] I am a member of the Quail Creek Airgun Club, near Green Valley AZ. We have a 20 lane air gun range and can shoot out to 100 yds. The air gun I shoot is a Rapid Air Weapon, .22 cal. I shoot a 15.9 gr pellet at 950 fps. My scope is a Sightron 10x50x56, It is one of the most accurate air guns available and is made in the USA!! I get lots of "long range" practice shooting at 100 yds. All shooting is from a bench with front and rear rest. Wind drift with a 5mph, 90 degree wind is similar to my 300 WSM, shooting 200 gr bullets, at 500 yds. I have shot thousands of rounds (at $.03 apiece) at 100 yds and it has helped me become a much better long range shot with my .300. I have shot many 100 yd groups under 1" with this air gun. However, only the top level, PCP air guns are capable of this type of accuracy. There a several PCP air guns on the market today, that have decent accuracy, in the the $400 to $1000 range. Utah Airguns, Airgun Depot, Pyramyd Air and Airguns of Arizona are good places to look for the better quality airguns and accessories. A word of caution, air gun shooting can be addictive!! [/QUOTE]
