Air Arms, Ripley, BSA @50 yards.

Post by New to 223 »

Thought it was time I gave some of my PCP's an airing, been busy lately shooting foxes with the new Tikka 222.

Hadn't shot them for months, realised these things have to be used to maintain reliability.

Left to right. BSA Scorpion SE .22 cal , Air Arms S410 Xtra .177 cal, Ripley XL9 .22 cal.

Top to bottom 10 shot groups are, Ripley, Air air arms, BSA Scorpion.

Pellets are JSB Cometa heavies, washed and lubed.

Bloody hell! Can people from the Bellarine Peninsula actually shoot or is it their rifle that do the job? :poke:
