Indians For Guns

Hello friends

i want advice to get an air rifle among precihole orion and pegasus. i dont want to participate in competitions so calibar is not an issue. i just want to have clean and accurate shots through mastershot pellets on target from longer distances [40-50 mtrs.]. in future may be i would also like to mount a scope on it to get a feel of sniper rifle :-]

thanks

50 meters?

Orion is fine for targets up to 40 meters. At 40 meters, without a scope, my aiming ability restricts me to targets that are at least 20 x 20 cm in size. I can't comment on the scope bit yet - I have a scope with two mounts and it moves out of position with just one shot from the Orion. I have ordered a different mount online and need to see how that works. The Orion has a liking for GSmith pellets with standard round head ones being the most convenient..

Hello ND,

Good Luck!
