Post by ndhanta » Tue May 14, 2013 11:54 pm

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

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,
> Get yourself a "Pegasus" from Precihole which comes in 0.177 cal.
> Ur idea of 'Longer Distances' is wishful thinking :lol:
> Any thing between 30mtrs to 35mtrs is considered a good long distance for Air Rifles - wherein as you've desired to get "Clean & Accurate Shots" :D
Good Luck!
