All,
The recent thread about improving our shooting made me think about getting more practice of sticks and from a sitting position.
I do practice with an air rifle, but its a Sharp Innova (pump up) and takes a bit of work to pump. My arm starts to ache after a few shots.
I've been thinking of swapping it but don't know much about air guns. A spring powered one would seem an obvious choice (cheap and no pumping) but I've heard there's a nack to shooting these. I am wondering if this might not be good practice for a centre fire.
The pre-charged ones seem good but are expensive.
I'd be grateful for any tips on practicing with an airgun to improve centrefire shooting. I'd also be grateful for a recommendation of what airgun might be suitable. I don't want to spend a lot of money on it - ideally what I can get for the Sharp with a small top up. A total of maybe £150 max.
Cheers,
Bob
