Dear Notch,

It's always good to challenge yourself and shoot over the distance you have.

However, realistically, I personally stick to 10m maximum for a majority of my shooting.

It may be best for you to concentrate on the 6 yard competition targets until you get tight groups and feel comfortable, then move up to 10 metres.

Kind regards,



Phil

I use a CP88 pellet shooter @ 10 yards on targets and it`s pretty accurate. At 20 yards the grouping is not reliable for targets but good enough for plinking. I also have a Witness and would say that at 6 yards It`s not too bad, at 10 yards It`s controllable to a lesser degree, but at 20 yards I think it`s pushing your luck, probably if shot with deliberation good for beer cans.
