Title: Most accurate fraulein?

My diminutive Beeman R7 may be my most accurate air rifle.  That's 5 AA 7.33 Falcons in a 1/2" dot at 25 yards off the bench, a few minutes ago.

Thank you.  My 97K and 50S have done this, on occasion, as has my Diana 34; however, the R7 is the most consistent, and the most fun to shoot, of all of 'em.

Nice shooting, as always, Greg.

For me it varies quite a bit as far as my most accurate shooter. Depends on my shooting position, offhand versus rest and definitely the distance. My HW30S up close. offhand, has been my most accurate, too. Of course, that may be the fact that I shoot it so much. Off the bench, my heavier rifles tend to do better with my heavy Hw 97K Blue laminate being the boss. Out at 50, my HW30S needs ideal conditions to do its best. That's where my higher velocity HWs like the 50s have the edge and especially my HW under levers. Great excuse, then, for having them all. :)

Ya that was a tight group for sure.Most every time I seem to always to pull one shot.Most always the last one.I can feel my heart race trying to make that perfect group then bam that flyer rears it’s ugly face.There are a lot more pellets i still need to try out but man it gets expensive.

Hi Joanie, it's good to hear from you.  I have access to a nice, private 100-yard range a couple, three-miles from the house; however, back, hip and leg issues prevent me from walking a whole bunch.  I did get a great, long (per Mrs. Oldgringo) bursitis needle in my buttocks this afternoon.  Maybe, it'll fix me?   ;D

I'd really like to try a little further out than our 30-yard backyard  Keep shooting and stay young and healthy.

Very nice shooting Greg. Hope that shot helps you shoot where you'd like to.
Be well my friend

The title of this post made me think of so many jokes that I can't type/post here...


LOL!
 
Sorry, sometimes I just can't help myself.

Nice shooting Greg!  One of my airgun regrets is not getting a new R7 when they still had the included muzzle weight with the nice stock. :'(  Sometime a few years down the road, I hope to pick up a nice used one.

Nicely done Greg ! Appears that little black dots have a slim margin for safety in your backyard...be well!

Very nice shooting!

And, I so relate to your experience of tensing up when not trying to. So, I shoot well enough and should just be happy with what is....

I’ve just traded my way into my first German springer . A vintage HW35E with the long 22 “ barrel in .177 cal . I have yet to put my hands on it but I’m really looking forward to it . I hear mostly great things from the vintage stuff . Too bad but the HW 45 pistol I traded just didn’t get used . I’ll be using mostly in the basement range at 10 meters during the winter months .

Airwoods I do the same thing sometimes, about the 7th or 8th pellet in a group and it looks so good, get excited and unless I take a break to calm down, the next one will be a flyer.

Good luck with the rear (adjustment) shot, hopefully you become more mobile ;). However, a 30 yard private range (home) sounds pretty good to me, since I only have 12 or 13 yards in my crawl space :D.  I'm also starting to see (cataract) haze when (rt) shooting eye gets tired :P.  I usually can only shoot for about an hour at a time.  Gotta keep making adjustments ... 8)
