If you do that with the sights, your pellets will impact high. Think of it this way, clamp the rifle, without sights, so it cannot move. The rifle will only shoot in one spot. Now add a front sight. The rifle is still shooting in the same spot. You can look through the front sight at many different...

First off, the line of sight through the sights will only change when you change the FRONT SIGHT height. If you leave the front sight alone and add/subtract 2mm on the rear sight, you will just end up clicking the rear sight up/down 2mm. Also, adding risers should not change where the rifle is poin...

I am using FWB 700 wood model with 23 mm elevated rear sight and 21 mm elevated front sight. My problem is, it is really difficult for me to relax my shoulder and neck because the rear sight height is still too low. I have to force myself to lower head when I am aiming. I tried elevate the rear sigh...

A few things to be aware of: You say The ISSF rule says that the front sight should not exceed 60mm height. If you look carefully at rule 7.4.2.7 (c) it reads "from the center of the sight ring or post to center of the bore" Now, 60mm is quite a bit, works out to a touch under 2.5 inches ...

First, to stay within the confines of the rules: The buttplate itself can be no more than 153mm top to bottom. The dish of the buttplate cannot exceed 20m depth. The lowest point of the buttplate can be no lower than 220mm below the centerline of the barrel. The buttplate cannot be offset more than...

I really don't know if there's any rules regarding the buttplate in air rifle. Anyone?

there are many regulations regarding the buttplate in air rifle. :)

Don't let the buttplate construction be a limit. (My buttplate is home made out of two different buttplates.) Perhaps you need to modify it a little to suit you. Have you tried to add some spacers at the upper part of the buttplate? Right. But, isn't it against the ISSF regulation? Can I see a pic ...

I play 10m air rifle. Recently, I am having a difficulty in keeping the butt plate hooked. When I start aiming and try to relax all my muscles, especially right shoulder and left arm, the butt plate gradually gets out from the shoulder or uncontacted. As a result, I become unable to relax my left ar...

all helped a lot. thanks!

Like the attached picture, I am thinking of adjust my rear sight higher than the front sight. I wonder if this causes any defect or problems in shooting 10m air rifle. Also, I want to know why both rear and front sight must be at the same height. Is there any 10m air rifle player who has set those t...

I do 2 kg weight pack training for an hour often. (the training that you have 2 kg pack hanging on the barrel and remain aiming for 5 min.) Everytime I finish the training and start shooting, my left leg trembles a lot. As a result, I get to shoot 9 and 8. Does anyone know why I am having trembling ...

What do you call the special lighter that blackens the fore sight? I heard there is one from Europe specially made for the purpose.

Also, can anyone tell me where I can purchase it online? (U.S.)

Thanks

Thanks a lot!!!

I am a non-US citizen and I would like to buy a 10m air rifle from FWB or Anschutz in the U.S. In order to possess and practice 10m air rifle what procedure should I go through? Just like in my country, do you have to get a permit for possessing an air rifle from local police dept. before you receiv...

stanford University used to have ranges on the order of 25m, but they were for 3-pos .22LR. May be able to be used for 10 m Air. King's College London has a versatile range underneath its old Georgian main building. All for short-range disciplines. They let you shoot 10 m AP, I know. Long way to tr...

Thanks for your replies. Unfortunately, all of the above ranges do not have an ISSF 10 meter air rifle/pistol range. I need to find a range which has built and used for only "ISSF" 10 meter air rifle/pistol. The range must have the 1.4 meter target height, 10 meter distance and target move...
