Every since I was a kid with a BB gun I have taken wildlife calanders and used them for targets. They usually have a lot of different animals at different positions, straight on, quartering, broadside, partially hidden behind a tree or bush ect. It helps to see where you should hold and get a clean shot. I still use up my old calanders that way. Sometimes with an air rifle but more often these days with a 22. It beats just shooting bulls eye targets. :grin:

Big medicine-Howdy.I also use a BB gun almost daily.I like to shoot cans in the back yard and especially like the angles it gives and I also like moving targets with the open sights of the BB gun.Good practice.I also like to shoot the scoped 22's at cans still and moving.I usually go thru 2-3 bricks of .22's per year and countless BB's.I feel like I should own stock in several BB manufacturer's by now.Great Idea on calenders and political pictures. :lol:

Best of luck.Jayco.

I like to use animal cookies and the birds clean up for me when I am through.
