Re: Pellets: Who's right?

That is Heinz Reinkemeier he is a very knowledgeable source for our sport. He has co-written many of the must-read books on Olympic shooting and he and his wife have coached gold medal winners.

You would do yourself a favor by listening to what he has to say.

Re: Dry fire device in 22 LR

Could you replace the firing pin with one that you file down?

The 54 action has dry fire pins you can buy and the 1827 has a "donut", but I could not find a unit made for the 64 actions.

Re: Free pistol grips - too large

Have you tried using a glove on your shooting hand? You could try different materials and thicknesses. Use a glove smaller than your hand size and cut out the fingers so it stays tight to your hand.

Just a thought.

Re: Help with my math please

This has been very interesting to me, when I first thought of it I tried to remember from when I was a kid if a .22 dropped 8 or 10” @ 100 yard The reply’s and the chart showed my memory is not that good. But looking at the chart that says there is about 7” different between 25 and 100, why wouldn’t...

Thanks for the help, I found this chart and I am going to use 6” above a bullseye at 25 yards and bank on a 6-7” drop at 100yds.

Also I attached a picture of the type of CPA rifle I am sighting in

I've bought a number of airguns from them, they sent them to The United States no problems. The shipping prices were very good as was the service.

A COP .357 with original case, papers and .22lr barrel inserts.

Re: Empty pellet tin use?

I use them on my work bench while disassembling item to hold small parts and to hold used cleaning patches while doing maintenance.

I also use them to hold original stock parts when I upgrade items, wrap blue tape around them and mark the firearm on it and stack them on a shelf.
