Killzone has nothing to do with the target - it is the area in which your bullet when fired can kill, and that could be a considerable distance beyond the target

you always have to take into consideration the "killzone" and if you feel that the shot isn't safe go with your gut and don't take it. I have seen bullets do some strange things after leaving their intended target (I may be new to air rifles but I have over 45 years of rim fire and full bo...

Out on the range this morning with my Air Arms TX200 .177 Under lever Bit of a crosswind (range flag was flapping and almost straight) A couple of targets at 25 yards to start with and tested a couple of different pellet brands and settled on JSB Exacts.
