There you go! Welcome to the DSC - the place where intelligent people can talk Ducatis..........and guns

bradders - what do you sell?

[rockhopper]

L1A1 SLR, a proper gun. Like my training corporal used to say, you get shot with one of those and you stay shot.

He also used to say that the only guns you find are on ships. Sorry Wingnut.

Air rifle - 1/4'' group at 55 yards? That's pretty impressive shooting!

I only shoot target at 25 yards with a 30 year old Finnish Lion .22 rimfire ( No scope ) Current average in comp is 97.6

Keep saying I will go to Altcar and have a go with full bore but never seem to get round to it.
( Too mean to pay for bullets )

But if anyone has an Accuracy International going cheap I could be tempted!

Looks like we could set up a shooting section within the club

Ah,Accuracy international,
Just ask Malcome Cooper(the boss)!!!

Anyone tried a 50 cal BMG yet??

1/4 inch at 55 yds is very impressive,just under 1/2 a minute of angle..Harris bipod by any chance.

sorry the threads been hijacked

1/4" groups are pretty std using modern field target rifles such as the anschutz 2002 air arms EV2 walther dominator and styerLG110 all dependent on ammo quality and weather conditions of course
whats the size of a V bull at a 1000meters??? is it 4"?
