You need to adjust your sights, op, and use bullets
i tried today but it was a lot of wind and its dark now. i cannot use bullets because this is norway.

Okay i ordered some different types of ammo and i also used a laser to correct my sights (not my eyes lol). It shows what i knew, that it shoots down and to the left. Test shooting today.

Ok No I'm curious now, what the gently caress is an 'Air Rifle'? I...had a pellet gun that I shot birds down with when I was little? Is it like that?
Having been raised by crazy drunk irish people and injuns in Oklahoma, I have seriously never been around a gun that wasn't something that fired painful metal objects at targets or fleshy objects.

I don't know anything about guns, let alone airsoft guns! Sorry I can't help you at all, op. Maybe look into buying real guns with real bullets so sensible people can give you a sensible estimate on price range for ammo so you can figure out how to train yourself sensibly I don't know.

It's a pellet gun isn't it. OP, you can do this. I was knocking pigeons out of my backyard fruit trees when I was 11 with those things.<>
Try taping the face of someone you hate to the pumpkin.

well there is airsoft which is more of a combat-practice where you're trying to get into firing position at close range to hit your target.
or
there is pellet guns, which is more of a marksman scenario where you are trying to hit a target at range.
my guess is that the op is using the latter. 70 meters is pretty long without any kind of rifling op i wish you luck.

Aaaah. Thank you! I had one of those old fashioned pump pellet rifles- I got jealous that my Brother and my Dad had rifles and so my dad got me one for my 10th birthday, and painted a unicorn on it for me. It was hilarious unwrapping it and setting it with the small sea of girly presents.
It's a good memory- my dad was hella awesome.

yeah I think it's a lot like that...powderless larger gauge ammo with a decent velocity leaving the barrel ie the op is not really pushing it shooting at 70 meters. I've never got to shoot one but I think they're used for small game. I just remember checking them out on amazon one time, I say let's find the one in the op

God, that's probably a lot easier than pumping a loving handle a billion times.
Though, the KA-chink, KA-chink, KA-chink noise was really centering, somehow.

air rifles were used as late as the 1980's for stealth operations as far as i know. they lack the power of a good powder charge but man are they quiet; range comparable to a pistol. wouldn't surprise me if they are still used today - easy to clean and not much wear compared to a conventional firearm, but that is some serious talk.

You want some serioustalk- my late father left my brother and I most of his firearms after he passed away, and I have a bunch of damned hydrashok rounds that I'm too nervous to use because I don't remember if they're legal in oklahoma.

hydrashok is for stopping unarmored mans and is now obsolete. i would consult the local firearms authority on such a thing.

Aaaah. I thought I hadn't seen any in a long time- he's been gone almost 10 years now. I figure I could just take them in somewhere; they're for a gun I don't even own anymore. I only kept what didn't knock me around too badly when I was learning to fire them properly ((I am a very tiny lady)).
((Goons- seriously. Go get a permit and learn to shoot a gun you buy or obtain. Don't be a tardbucket. Back to air rifle//pellet talk!))
EDIT: I like you, Zebra-Dude. You seem pretty cool.
