ive been shooting a long time mate,ive not owned an airgun for around 20yrs but at a young age,bought up on one and as with most youngsters unsupervized,i shot at what ever moved which was killable with an airgun but since then,the only thing i have shot which i can truthfully remember was whilst pigeon decoying. a bird approached the decoys,looked identical to a woodie coming in so i dropped it.
that too was a woodcock.
lamping,i would NEVER shoot an eye in the lamp,i like to see the out line of the target species.
