Shooting springers at 100 yds is not what they are designed for Unless you like disappointment

Not yet. At least a tin of 500 for break in. Congratulations! Looks like a real shooter.I prob have 50 rounds through it so I assume it’s broken in now!
You could school this whole forum professor!It is fun to hear everyone's idea of accuracy in springers. I haven't read all pages yet but the word to me is "precision". Can your gun do what you want it to if you shoot it well? Then it is precise. Be Well, Bandito.
Was just a funny and “accurate “ commentMore like "perfesser" in this case. It just seems that we all desire a certain level of that precision. It varies with each of us. Real precision has eluded me. As a young buck, with 500 or more rounds fired a month I was good at instinct shooting. I could get a vitals shot off on a rabbit as my partners were hitting their safety. Still, to this day, precision eludes me as does a steady hold or being able to hear that bunny start to move. Hope I didn't come off as an eggspurt here. Be Well, Bandito.
With what? Kimber 82 ?how about 1/2 page , was goofing around shooting 3 shot groups on the 30 yard challengeView attachment 452249
I guess thats what they call opening a can of whoopass lolI love the cans. They’re decent to hit. I like cutting them in half. Every shot counts to do as few as possible.
‘Bean or mushroom can size. 30 yds. my best is 33. A piece has to drop. The last break is a challenge. View attachment 451296I count 10 out at a time. Good challenge for accuracy. Crow
So a pcp shooting a 14g .22 at 850fps is better at a 100y then a good springer shooting a 14g .22 at 850fps? Aybe you mean a 20g slug at 1000 from a pcp .? I'm confused ..Shooting springers at 100 yds is not what they are designed for Unless you like disappointment

What do you consider respectable at 100 yds. Or have you never tried ir?Shooting springers at 100 yds is not what they are designed for Unless you like disappointment

nice groups and at 25yards !Keeping it real here's another page of 25 yard five shot springer groups. I pulled out of my shop garbage. I don't remember if I've posted this one already or what gun it was. I can tell the the bottom left was a pellet change and the scope was adjusted for the last four targets. Note the random flyer ruining the other four. Typical springer groups. Well at least mine. The red dots are 3/4".

Problem is most of my friends shoot those 3/8, or smaller 30 yard groups with springers. But, we have made each other better shooters. The Indians are the limitations, not the arrows....Or bows.Hereis the thing one has to remember You can have a springier that will shot a 3/8” group at 30 yds and that is great.
BUT are you as the shooter capable of shooting gun up to that level ??
My brother will take my WH 97K .22 and at 30 yds his group is over a inch my group is most of the time 3/8”
So my advice get the best gun you can and work on shooting you may never get as good as others BUT you may also get better than your friends
