    "adult" air rifle

    Re: "adult" air rifle Im considering a Daisy 953 as a "mini sniper" Its about $80 and there's lots of tuning info around. Daisy will also sell you a match barrel as an upgrade. http://daisy.com/shopping/customer/product.php?productid=16145&cat=258&page=1of I haven't figured out...

    Faster twist barrels?

    Re: Faster twist barrels? my quick read of the wiki article leads me to think that "balanced flight" is an idea to minimize the effect of dropping out of supersonic flight. Im more interested in subsonic .22s. Thats realy interesting though. thanks

    Faster twist barrels?

    Re: Faster twist barrels? Question is if a bullet can maintain stability at a initialy higher rate of spin, will the longer period of "rotational inertia" at longer ranges be an advantage? Its a theory. Im getting good results at 100 yds with the wrong barrel and crap ammo.

    Faster twist barrels?

    Faster twist barrels?

    Are faster twist barrels an advantage at longer ranges? I've read that the disadvantage is "over-stabilization" that effects lighter bullets and magnifies any flaws in the bullet. Im wondering if a bullet is able to maintain its flight with out "wobbles" as it spins "to fast" and is still...
