What is your standard for accuracy?
- Thread starter _CTAIRGUNNER_
- Start date
after dinner, pork chop bones , much quicker response .easy peasy!
I would chop up hot dogs reaaaly small and about 2pm scatter that where I want them to go(die)
Ghillie suit up as the sun sets and prone down(I want to make a blind for my table)
I would then proceed to wait for those pesties or until I saw the sun again

Evvvverrryyy time I go fishing overnight and use hotdogs at some point(for bait or eatin) trash Pandas ALWAYS show up. The smaller the pieces; harder for them to pick up, especially if the little pieces are down in some grass and they have to pick at it

ONLY when said air Gun is held in a MACHINE REST can the guns Actual / True accuracy be truly quantified 
So with that NOT being realistic for us mortals, Having a AG that Fits correctly, has a Great trigger, and trends to be accurate will be a gun one can shoot to the guns potential.
That profile fulfilled ... at realistic range for caliber and power shooting at, needs too be at or below MOA for competition guns and a tad looser for a field gun is my personal standard of accuracy requirement.

You REALLY wanna mess with them near the river? Set out cotton candy! They will try to wash it and then spend time looking at where they dipped it in the water! Cause it will desolve and as they are wondering what the heck happened? BOOM!

Yes, Mechanically Locked into a fixed position. Watching testing of many manufacturers of AG's or pellets, barrels etc ... exactly how they test for said ACCURACY.

I use sand bags on my table
but my table is mainly for target shooting. If I go hunt; I'm either walking and shooting off hand/sitting on a bucket/or prone. Table is a new ball game for me lolUpvote 0
I shoot off a swivel bipod. Only rear rest is my left arm as a support if needed.
I was a Sniper in the 82 AirBorne so that training carries over.
