Love 22lr in a S&w 617. Cheap to shoot all day.
Do you feel that shooting air gun improves your skill overall?Shooting 22LR mostly, at the club 2 or 3 days a week. Starting with 20 or 30 rounds centerfire first.
At home, about 1 day a week, shooting .177 air rifle & pistol.
After the last 22LR shortage , not getting caught short again. As soon as some became available at a good price, bought 5000 CCI Standard velocity & 10,500 Federal Value Pack.
Have plenty of primers also. Bought them when there was a surplus & a rebate.
I just hope i can outlast the current shortages ?
The last shortage (~2012-16) is exactly why I bought my last airgun.There is always airgun...
Especially if it’s a 6 shot! Takes a bit of time to reload...Love 22lr in a S&w 617. Cheap to shoot all day.
I’ve recently obtained a Coolfire trainer that uses CO2 and a Mantis X that gives feedback on the trigger press. I think any way you practice helps, providing it’s the right practice.Do you feel that shooting air gun improves your skill overall?
I've got a Walmart pellet gun (amazing what they sell for $100 these days) and a tiny little plate rack that I never shoot. No rifle, yet. Maybe I should just practice with the pellet gun for now.
Better then not shooting at all. Works the same muscle group. May help focusing on the front sight and Trigger control?Do you feel that shooting air gun improves your skill overall?

This.It's just the opposite for me. I'm holding onto rimfire stuff because I can't make any more of it if I run out!
