Re: Experience with Anschutz 9015?

anschutz air rifles

the 9003 (now discontinued) was supposedly a smoother shooting (better "recoil dampening"?) than the 8002... the new 9015 is supposedly a better action and the basis for what's to be all of anschutz's forthcoming rifles (im PRETTY SURE this is what i read)... is there any plan on improving...

Re: ISSF World Cup Prone - Clapping during Final Shots

im not a shooter but my daughter is... in the short time of her competing (since Sept 14) shes never made a "real" finals (i.e. top 8 shooters)... she shoots at Camp Perry Ohio (Air Rifle) pretty often and they have finals. one competitor actually turned around and announced to the spectat...

i believe i walked right behind you when you got DQ'd at the equipment check table... when my daughter and i were going through EC, we were behind 6-7 other shooters who all had some issue with their jackets. another junior's dad said he hadnt seen ANYONE pass tech in the 40 minutes he had been ther...

Re: pistol pellets v rifle pellets

If possible chrono the pellets out of her gun ... if >600fps they are not legal. If you have a rifle that is set for rifle at the high 570-580fps range, they probably are too zippy Note: I've never seen a rifle chrono'd at a match though. Joe Hein did some tuning on it last year at the Camp Perry O...

Re: pistol pellets v rifle pellets

If your daughter is nearing the end of the season, continue using what she has. Make no changes before big matches at season's end. ... The biggest reason to do this is not the difference in accuracy, but the shooter's mindset knowing they have the best for their rifle (no excuses about ammo). Cons...

Re: adjustable aperture air rifle

Yes they are legal in ISSF. Kinda pointless though. Once you find what size you want, you don't really ever need to change it. Mine has been at 4.1 for like 4 years. I really like the Centra High End inserts. Matt well the daughter shoots NRA, CMP and ISSF ruled air rifle... id like to think that o...
