Range Report: standing benchrest

Post by Sir Henry » Sat Feb 06, 2021 3:41 pm

I shot the Big Cat today. I may have called it a Tomcat before by mistake.

This time I shot at 20 yards standing from a bench. It would have been better if it was a couple inches higher. I haven’t shot this air gun in awhile and never shot as heavy of a pellet so it took me a few shots to get it zeroed for the ammo.

While I shot a steak was cooking on the grill to the right.

Ceasefire to check on the steak.

The steak was done so I made five quick shots. Since this rifle is mainly for rabbit control I went with a heavier pellet. I need to be shooting all in the black to get a clean kill.

This backyard range and kitchen is really coming together.

My ammo arrived today. These will mostly be for my new CO2 pistol and rifle I ordered. Two day shipping from Arizona and the packaging was top notch.

That has to be the most relaxed and inviting shooting bench/station I have ever seen!!! Excellent work and build on an air rifle range! Good shooting too!
