My 2 cents I know that with my personal scuba tank it is secured to the wall of my garage and is in a position so as when I am filling it the air rifle tank is facing the wall. I bought the tank as an ex-rental from a dive shop, and it is now classified as a non-dive tank so that it can be certified...

At the moment I am using a 3.6. I was using a 4.0 but was playing one day and used from 3.0 up to 4.2 and I found that I had the best sight picture using the 3.6. I found that any smaller was a real challenge to have a consistant sight picture, as the gap between the black of the target and the fron...

Be relaxed before you get down into position. take the time to concentrate on your breathing and try to slow your heart rate down ...
