I have a crosman 160 and when i shoot some pellets it doesnt hit in the same part i mean it hit in the right then in the left or down or up i dont know why i look inside the barrel and it looks clean what you recomend in this case?? excuse me for the bad english i speak spanish.

All pellets (or bullets from firearms) slow down and drop with increasing distance due to air resistance and gravitational attraction. So, if an air rifle is sighted-in at 10 yards, it will shoot low at 30 yards (for example) Yes, you will need to adjust the elevation for different distances, but knowing that you are on-target at 10 yards makes it much easier to adjust for longer ranges.

Yes, that’s why I show a sock full of sand as a viable (but less good) alternative to a rifle rest in the video. Shooting indoors simply removes any effect from wind. This technique can be used outdoors on a windless day also.

It’s very difficult to answer this without looking at the gun and the target. The only time I’ve had this type of problem is when I shot .177 caliber pellets through a .22 air rifle by mistake. Are you using .22 cal pellets with your 160? And your English is MUCH better than my Spanish

yes im using gamo hunter 22. domed pellets.. hehe thanks about the english

Hey is this just one of them cheap guns with the two co2 capsules if so i have a one that i took to a gun shop because it needed new seals and the gunsmith took it apart and left it in bits and said he couldn’t fix it, do you you how to fix such a thing?
Thanks Harry

Is it true that if the scope is sighted at 20 yards, the first mildot below is sighted for 10 yards? if so, please explain.
thank you.

oh yah, one more thing… is the mildot above, 10 yards further.
I was told that but doesnt really make sense cause if so, it means that pellets curves upwards when being shot.
Please explain how to use mildots on scopes.
thank you.

@ArcherAirguns With that being said, A scope is a disadvantage so to speak, if one is not an expert in this matter, as I used to have a rifle without scope and my shoot were pretty much more accurate than they are now! with a scope!!! the problem now is that I just bought a Gamo 1200 and it doesnt have a regular sight it cames with a scope… what a boomer!

i am looking to purchase a .22 air rifle what would you suggest please reply
thankyou
