DYO 22 Trainer

[Alan de Enfield]

: ................I remember the first time it was used at the range, Waltzed up to the firing point during a rimfire practice, loaded and prepared to fire, shooters were backing away and clapping hands over ears, PLINK, with the long barrel it was'nt much noisier than an air rifle...................
.

I had the reverse - I'd been shooting my No4 and No5 on the 'full-bore' range and decided to use the No2 Mk4* - after the first round I was tapped on the shoulder and told to 'cease fire' as I'd had a miss-fire (or so they thought).

The only problem at a 100 yards is that there is time to leave the mat, go get a cup of tea, and return to the mat in time to see the 'strike'.

Great fun, no shoulder aches and cheap to feed - go for it.

We shoot regular trainer matches at the two clubs I'm involved with and they are addictive, as soon as someone trys it they immediately want a trainer, in my opinion XA stick to .22LR as you'll soon want to get competitive with whatever you lay your hands on. ON the SSAA website theres even an approved trainer list.
