Sounds like you have finer taste in wine than in airguns. I've shot (and own/owned) cheap airguns, and I've shot (and own/owned) very expensive ones...for those of us that can appreciate the difference, a difference does indeed exist. Much like your wine example.

The inherent or even perceived monetary value of anything is exactly what someone is willing to pay for it. Not just in airguns, but generally, in modern consumerism based markets, we're often paying for the name. Usually that name is accompanied by higher quality, because the 'brand" wants to...

A Lamborghini and a Prius gets you from point A to point B. The journey is a bit more enjoyable with one than the other.

These two were part of a 234, and that was the high over a couple days. I've shot 12-14 cards in the last couple days, all at 100 yards. The average of them is in the high 220s and mostly shot on windy days. Most of the 5 shot groups are scoring 43-46. Very good for .22 pellets, but...

I'm in the two weeks/year that I practice benchrest with any sort of sincerity or real intent... So here is the VERY cherry picked high of the day...two very good 100 yard groups, from the JSB Grands. Top one is likely a 49, depending on who's plugging...but I'll take 49s and 50s. From a BRK...

What the heck kind of rifling does this .20 have? Most .20 conversions are done with LWs, and they're 12 land and grooves. I've heard of guys using HW .20s but they're also 12 land and grooves. Yours is looking like maybe six? lands and grooves??? I'm very interested to know the source of the...

Edit: my comments here are general field target, not necessarily WFTF specific. From @humbled.ag... "Why not set a proficiency rating threshold that requires you to give up the lrf? I think if you get to, and over a seventy percent knockdown rate for a season, you don't get to use a lrf next...

This weekend I had my third match with it in Hunter class and as a .20.... But first, the silhouette from field target position on Friday evening before the field target match. 40 shots, 1/10th scale silhouettes out to 70 yards. out of the 6 guys we had shooting that match, the USFT was overall...

Sounds like you're talking about Extreme FT results from 2023 EBR maybe? RMAC doesn't have an Extreme Field Target division.

I'm not sure what's going on here....yay for you? We all had various suggestions on our personal experiences with shooting USFTs. Hope your day gets better.

Not me Sir. I didn't attend.

https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/mac1-usft-analysis-overview.1044226/ Last couple pages has my most recent adventures with it. Although I need to update it with the results from this past weekend....shot a 45/48 for second place (and second overall highest score of the match, all classes)...

I dislike shooting paper, but my field target practice happens on paper. And almost always with a full sheet of 3/8" circles with a dot in the middle so I can see small changes in the impact point. I'm a huge proponent of shooting from your actual ft position. I agree with Mike that knowing...

I'm not surprised by your 13% improvement. It's likely multifactorial....the most obvious, and germane to this topic, is the equipment. But you've also been doing this longer now, so practice and experience. And the placebo effect of feeling you've now got the ultimate gun/scope combination is...

Non-regulated for me as well. I feel that the low pressure, tubed versions are the essence of what I've been told LD was going for: simple and reliable.

This listing has been renewed

I had the same thought when I read your previous post here...so again....there's a difference between a "guru", and a creator.

FYI, LD invented the USFT. And sounds like he continues to tinker with his creation.

I know this started as a WFTF topic, but as an aside.... Not many 16x, 19.5fpe Hunter class misses are due to mis-ranging either, yet that is an oft-blamed culprit. Brain fart on the holdover value, poor wind assessment, yanked triggers and/or general instability are all much more frequent miss...

If you're sorting pellets, youve got plenty of time on your hands. Barrels, like just about everything else in our universe, follow Gaussian distribution, or rather, bell curves. Most are decent, some are exceptional, and some are pure crap. One of my guns is on its 5th barrel. I won one of...
