Tyger welcome to the forum. Great bunch of guys here, with a ton of knowledge and always willing to share what they know. I've learned a ton just from reading and I've asked my share of questions. These guys here are great.

Bogey, the only speeding ticket I ever got in my LIFE was in SC, Sunday morning 8 AM, nobody on the road except a state trooper, outside of Calhoun Falls- the middle of nowhere. What can I say, except that I wish troopers would concentrate on something a little more important than a guy going 8 MPH over the limit on an openroad with idealdriving conditions. Of course, I realize the fact: money collection is now one of their most motivating efforts. Too bad, But it is a fact.

A big welcome to the GTA forum and family.  Great shooting at those nutters with your Whisper.  BTW....CPHPs are funny....or should I say abit inconsistant.....they can be very good or abit iffy.  Out of some of my air rifles....I can get 7 excellent shots out of 10....they other 3 are flyers.  I think their skirts are abit hard so it doesn't expand nicely to seal up the bore....

Thanks to all for the warm welcome to the forum.

With what little experience I have so far, I know now that when I put a loose fitting pellet into my gun, it will not pierce the target in the black. It will not group with the others.

Hello Tyger,

This place has a wealth of knowledge along with very interesting hunting accounts told by folks from all walks of life. Very diverse group of folks for sure with plenty of experts around. Welcome and have a blast.

By the way, your avatar caught my eye. I assume some of your time is consumed by blacksmithing. In recent years, I have picked up blacksmithing as one of my many hobbies and find it very rewarding.

I cannotsay that I am a blacksmith; however, I do try to use some of those technicswhen making my belt bucklesand other jewlery. This is the Chi Rho, pewter on brass, 3.5 inches diameter, copyright 2009:
