I started with BB guns. Now I'm a Springer fan. I have a lot of Co2 pistols and Winchester as well as a Tallon SS. I also tuned and modified all of my springers. Beginning with my Beeman R1. I have one Nitro Piston Crossmsn. I have used many Vortex Tune kits. Modified triggers, re-crowned barrels, and refinished many. The only one I didn't do myself is my RWS 54. I had a fellow from PA do that one, I think in the early 90s. I wish I could remember his name He did a stellar job. I shot Field Target when it first came to America for about two years. Man that R1 is a heavy beast. I also have two Benjamin - Sheridan C9s. I had
Mac - 1
turn one into a Steroid Srteak. I no mostly shoot in my condo down the hall into my Outters .22 bullet trap. I'm currently shooting my Bronco, Diana Mos-240 Classic, 2240, and WALTHER Mod. Lever - Action the most. I really like shooting into Balsitic clay to see wound channels and recover the pellets to check their deformation.
