Sorry, you're wrong Ramon: Rifle Training is only about air rifle. Ways of the Rifle is mostly about 3 position shooting. A new English edition of this book is long overdue...

Re: Looking for info on the old 9003 Precise AIRGUN STOCK

Abi,

I have both and I confirm that everything is the same: buttplate and cheekpiece are interchangeable. The shape of the fore end is identical.

Let me know if you need any specific dimensions.

Re: Karl KENYON trigger.

Bienvenue sur ce forum Nicolas !

I have two Kenyon triggers: the one above is for the 1800-1900 series and the other one below is for the 1400 series:

As you can see, yours is obviously intended to be used on a 1900 serie.

Re: USAS-50 Scoring Gauge

Aren't Eagle Eye gauges (and overlay gauges generally) just a generic 0.22 cal? There's an inner ring that corresponds roughly to the hole, and an outer ring marking the bullet. Those I've seen work on any target. Plug gauges are often target specific, if the flange is oversize, corresponding to ta...

USAS-50 Scoring Gauge

Is there such a thing as an Eagle Eye scoring device for the USAS-50 smallbore target ? Although I've never seen one, maybe it's available somewhere ?

Re: Olympic/ISSF Style 10m Air Rifle Shooting in Canada

If your air rifle has a muzzle velocity of over 500 fps (152 m/s) and that its muzzle energy is higher than 5.7 joules, it is considered a firearm in Canada.

Trip to Bavaria and Austria

Hello !

I will be travelling from Munich to Vienna later in July: do you have any target shooting related suggestions for me in this area ? (shops, ranges, matches, etc). I'm a rifle shooter.

Thanks !
