FWB load method for myself is to hold the pellet sideways with the fore finger and thumb and insert the pellet in this manner. I am a right-handed standing shooter and use my left hand to cock and the load pellet. I believe this method would work well using my right hand. Will try it tonight. IMO, t...

The term "Flow State" has come to my attention. A very large and interesting amount of information is available about this subject, lots on youtoob. Back when I was in my twenties, after a year or two of dedicated practice, I discovered this relaxed state of mind, and could enter it in an ...

Definitely good air rifles. Back in 1989, could shoot Standing 99 using a FWB 601 SSP, we all had them, we all shot them, as they were cutting edge at the time. Same goes for the others that you mention. In this present day, it is not hard to find a used CO2 tank, possibly buy it already filled, or ...

IMO, Good eye sight is not the decision maker. I have good eye sight, but do have floaters that sometimes go by in the sight picture, I sometimes deal with it, all fuzzy and sorts, take the shot, and still get a 10. All depends on what level any one is at. IMO All is fine as long as you have good al...

If you are only dry firing, you can add distance by looking at the target via a mirror.
Example using a 50 foot target, place target 30 feet from mirror, then stand 20 feet from said mirror
and aim at reflection in mirror, combined distance equals 30 feet plus 20 feet= 50 feet.

Just saw this today, on the FB page, 53,000 square foot building, interesting.

I tried another semi recent attempt at getting an air rifle group together at my local gun club. This was the return message. "After discussing our conversation regarding air rifles and the possibility of a program with the Club’s Executive Committee and Chief RSO, there was a consensus that wh...

Good questions, 1) As a beginner, you need to get accustomed to your own breathing methods, gentle slow relaxing breaths. Do as many as 8 to 10 , maybe 12 at first start of target, as you get a few shots off, you may reduce the number as you get into the swing of things. But IMO, as a beginner, to d...

1) Have them shoot at a blank white 8 1/2 x 11" piece of paper, and tell them to simply shoot for the middle. This will be easy and relaxed, then look at the group sizes. Another spin on this method, to try after the first method has been thoroughly practiced, is draw a small black sharpie circ...

Watched entire video, very good informative video for new want to be rifle shooters.
I would add that there are a lot more lower cost ways to get involved/exposed/introduced to 3 position rifle shooting than he states.

Have done some searching here and internet, on Bicycle Biathlon. Finding that it exists out there in the world, but not that much information on it. I have a few possibilities, Air rifle with, as of now 2, maybe 3 ranges on a 7 mile gravel road loop. Possibly with permission, a very large Mt bike co...

Not completely sure what damage has been done, 1) hex has been stripped out, 2) threads have been stripped out. So you need to get everything removed and apart. Dremel cut wheels/cut bits, work well with skill. Cut a slot in hex for removal. Small drive pin with hammer for screw removal of stripped ...

Hi RB, Thank you, and I completely agree with and understand your points. Long history of Standing of air rifle for myself, dating back to FWB 601 in 1988. And I too once did not shoot air rifle, thinking if I am driving to a range, I am shooting the 22 smallbore. But air rifle is a whole different ...

Very easy and affordable, Rubber chip mulch, (shredded auto tires), at Walmart off season price approx $3/bag. Fill a carboard box with this. Or fill a cardboard box with many layers of cardboard. Both these method are very quiet, as the pellet is not hitting a steel plate. With minimalized pellet d...

Another opportunity at the same location, the cellar is not being used for anything, there is a completely open section 28 feet wide by 60 feet in length.

Perhaps also look into potential affiliation with an American Legion post, so you will not have to reinvent the wheel... Here is the overview pamphlet- https://www.legion.org/sites/legion.org/files/legion/publications/294ACY03210%20Junior%20Shooting%20Sports%20Chairmans%20Guide.pdf Here are other r...

The opportunity to make this happen still exists, however, am coming up with zero candidates to even look at the equipment. What seemed to be positive interest was all just talk , no action. I may set up at the location, for myself, and my son to go to during mid winter close to home place to go , f...

Stiffness is a big topic of discussion, there was a rule change a few years ago that increased the possible thickness by close to a factor of 2. The original thickness is still available, but now x2 thickness is available. Also if your interested, look at the procedure for material thickness test. C...

My opinion about this, I do not want to break it in. Have a pair of Gehman trousers for more than a year, using them daily, that have yet to be folded and just stand them vertically in the corner when not using them. As far as coats go, shoot with it, and it will naturally conform to your needs, try...

Most FWB 900, from what I have witnessed, come as standard size. You can special order a smaller size stock, I believe the rear portion is shorter. This order is done on the FWB order form. It is one of the boxes that you check. This form is on the FWB web site. Special order will require a possible...
