Title: Hatsan 95 Target Shoot while Camping
Post by: SpiralGroove on August 18, 2015, 10:27:04 PM
Hey Guys,
Went camping with my Son to Lake Kachess (Washington State) last Thursday until today and did some shooting with my (.177) Hatsan 95 at 46 yards.  Do I ever need to practice my long range shooting, all the little nuances really added up.  I think I shot about 30 times off a bench/bag and got the following.  With a little more practice, I think I could get most of my shots in the 10 ring or bullseye.

not bad at all and things will get better the more you shoot the 95

while I don't do camping (I like A/C and showers), it would be fun to have a pellet gun while camping to pass the time with friends or family

Good shooting but by you picture of your bench you didn't try enough different pellets.

Thanks Guys,
I usually just shoot in my 12 yard, crawl space, range and have found at that distance H&N 8.64's work the best.
This is pretty much the first or second time I've gone a longer distance.  That day I tried CPUM & the H&N's, maybe another pellet is better?

Shooting at 46 yards is way more fun, forcing you to really think about your technique for good accuracy.
Also, there was that dreaded wind that has been helping create Nasty fires in Washington State this Summer.

Love the bench. If both wings of that table were the same size you could shoot right handed or left handed like me.
