Excellent. Really enjoy your vids.

Likewise.

So I watched and then went back to some early ones, yes, excellent. Couple of questions:
1. Dry firing - are you using a snap cap to protect the firing pin or does it not matter?
2. The tourist arrested with "tons" of range brass in his camper - why was he arrested? and why do you trash the brass? no reloading?

cheers. J.

1) No but only because I don't have snap caps.
2) Theft of private property. Brass is worth thousands even as scrap metal. The bins are at the range to collect & recycle.

@Norway, hand on heart just yesterday I was thinking how much I have learnt from your previous posts and vids. Lately my shooting with a 22 has got a bit poor 50/50, so yesterday I started to really concentrate on all the things you have taught. Result 3 headshot rabbits, 1 lapwing (plover) 1 magpie no miss. All 50 - 60 metres while feeding out

Thanks for that, hearing of other people's success is inspiring.

Sorry for late reply, I get heaps or error 403 access forbidden from the forum. No idea why

Since last post I tried the 'Natural point of aim' from your vid. Magpie 70 metres with only 25mm of black visible because of a rise in the paddock. I had just watched you vid so it was fresh in my mind. Closed my eyes, opened again and I was 75mm off. Adjusted position closed eyes, opened, didnt move POA so squeezed off the sub and poof dead Magpie. That was a very difficult shot that I would normally expect to miss. (Rest off side of a fence post)

Used the 'Natural point of aim' again yesterday, closed eyes, 100 mm off, adjust body and recheck NPA - then perfect shot ! I am a total convert now. This has been the single best improvement to my shooting ever.
Cheers for putting it up.

Thanks and no problem. I should have another film out in a little less than two weeks. Just returned from a wilderness hunt and sorting those clips now.

Here's the next segment. It repeats the basics and starts digging a little into ballistics

@Norway, I have tried several times but cannot access your latest vid ?

Sorry, no idea why. Episode 342 (the latest) plays just fine for me and everyone else it seems...

Video played ok for me, very nice shooting. Out of interest sake how many rounds approx do you shoot a year in practice ? it must be a fair number.

Explaining airpressure, quantity and relevance as well as demonstrating this by shooting
