10 meters isn't short distance. It's Olympic distance and can be quite challenging. Keep up what you are doing. Nice shooting.

Crosman 1701P with Steve Corcoran Grips
- Thread starter ThomasT
- Start date
I don’t know Thomas, on that 30foot target, it’s for 22. With 22 you need to eliminate the shaded grey to get an x. The 177 version has no grey and a slightly bigger dot. The dot must be eliminated to get an x. You may need to send your trophy back. LOL
So I took the stock off the 1720 and shot from a bag with 7.33 AA. I need a better rest for pistol. I rested the butt on my off hand. Pretty shaky!
No stock is a big handicap! 293, it’s hard to be still. Maybe more coffee?

Thanks, that is how I use my 1701, two handed.
I gave up on open sights, bad eyes an lighting, and am now running a Hawke red dot.
Normally my 10m is with my 753 or HW30 and peep sights.
I told my wife that I need $20k for a rifle and stiff outfit so I can go to the Olympics in Paris.
She said, “Ok, but where will you purchase talent?”
She has a mean streak.

Hello everyone,
I have been shooting all of my Pistols since 1:30am and it is now 8:36am. Love each and everyone but I have become spoiled really fast shooting the Crosman 1701P Silhouette with the Steve Corcoran wood grips. Various people have expressed how well their hand fits and how natural and comfortable it feels and I am the same way. Now I want a pair for ever Pistol that I own, like that is going to happen.

Good shooting Thomas. Not gonna be any of that round here for the next week according to the weather peeps. Was already raining when we woke up. I have a couple guns that need attention anyway. And Kim’s mom comes in next weekend so we have to get the house clean enough to perform surgery on the floor ha ha ha.
As far as SC grips for everything, why not? Probably cost less than the stock I’m considering for my HW97K long barrel! Misery loves company

Believe it or not the sun is out and I am going to shoot some 10-meter this morning and maybe some 25-yard if the weather holds.
Have a great weekend,

Hello everyone,
I just received and installed a new scope on my Crosman 1701P. It is a Vector Optics Grimlock 1-4x24, 30mm tube, scope. Really clear glass and a neat reticle, the reticle is two horizontal lines and one lower ventricle line with a small circle in the middle and in the middle of the circle is a tiny dot. The other neat thing is that it will focus down to my indoor 15-foot target. I have only shot a dozen pellets so far but it is super easy to zero in on a bulls eye with that reticle. I did view my 25 and 50 yard targets on max power and they also looked great. Now I need a bit of sunny days to give this a good workout.
