What springer did you shoot today?
- Thread starter crowski
- Start date
Y’all are killing me. It was 71 degrees when I got up this morning. Lowest temp since June 9 and of course I was going to the office. It was 100 when I got home. Supposed to cool a little end of week. Sure hope so.

Sat on the back porch in my chair and shot the Baikal IZH 61 from 16 yards off hand at a block of clay.

My 35 seams to shoot better every time I bring it out. Crow
Don’t know how you do it. Have jeans and a jacket on yesterday after supper shooting. I don’t have air conditionin, living on lake. Crow
I like that clay idea. Crow

This rifle is a Diamond, Pro Sport .22. I could do a weekend conference on the pleasures of this rifle. 
Next up an odd ball HW50 Black .177.
This baby has a Vortek, and it shows. Crow

I realize my two Winchesters/Daisys and my Ruger/Umarex rifles are entry level springers. I inherited the Winchester made in Turkey from a very dear friend who passed away in April from cancer. I gained the other two for less than $150.00 and am having fun playing with them regardless how challenging they can be. And far cheaper to shoot than powder burners!

Great picture they are both sweet looking. Do they have the same scope? I just don t see as well anymore and not so computer great either or I could zoom in or something?

Your Winchester is special. I think all springers are special. Nothing wrong with a good challenge. Crow
The Pro Sport has Element, the 50 has a Hawke. All my guns are either Hawke or Element. Crow
Your welcome. No torment intended. Reminds me of my first air rifle. CrowOh there you go tormenting me with that HW 35E. !! Thanks for sharing
Your welcome. Feel like a motivational speaker. Ya my .177 shot like an encore performance. Crow

Many of my favorite airguns are affordable entry level models. And I know what you mean about high PB ammo prices. I've cut way back on shooting my firearms. I mostly shoot airguns now.

To keep the tradition going a HW35e .22. Once I realized I had it zeroed at 35 yds. she was constant. Sweet gun.
Up next, Pro Sport .177. I almost bought a third PS last Fri., I should have. Clean.
Speaking of clean. This is what I woke up to. At least a 100 dirty beasts.
Goose season is on, I don’t have a licence. Their lucky. Any hunters? I’ll build you a blind. Crow

Some fun with the MM tuned XS28M .25 and a B19/D250 he did. Also put around 50 through the Baikal IZH 61

Took out a Diana 460 .22. This gun totally surprised me. It pounded the spinners with awesome accuracy at 35 yds.
Don’t like it’s getting dark 7;30. Spot lites are coming soon. Crow

These here. Kicked some cans around the range under the lights. One springer, one pumper, one CO2. Getting a handle on the 1300KT. With the weight and long barrel it takes a little learning. The 30 mm Hawke is a little big, 20 mm one on the way. Fun gun. Super smooth and accurate, about 8.5 FPE. Really digging the 2 x 28 scope I put on the carbine. The RG reticle is nice, used both colors tonight depending on background. And the HW45. My favorite pistol. Closest thing to a PB handgun I’ve ever shot. Superb trigger once adjusted properly.

I was blessed to have my agency buy most of my PB ammo for 38 years. Now being retired that benefit has gone away and I am amazed by some of the costs. I shoot a lot less with my PBs.
