| i finally put my 4x32 scope on my beeman rs2, it was rough going at first but finally got about a .75 inch group at 25yds. i've put about 200rds thru the gun so far, so i have couple questions. with it set at 25yds how far can i shoot before i will need to aim high? also with this being a 22 cal will i need only head shots on squirrels and rabbits or will a body shot in the lung area take it down? i chrono'd the gun with crosman premier hollow points at 14.3 grain it is doing an average of 910fps. thanks |

There is a program called chairgun from hawke optics that will tell you hen to hold over and hold under for your specific set of parameters. It is at
http://www.hawkeoptics.com/chairgun.html#.Uhe9l3-0cas
I haven't used this particular version, but I had the original chairgun and it worked really nice. So good luck! |

| usually...trial and error is the normal way of learning holdover/under. |
