I used to do target plinking in the shooting range but switch to Bullseye shooting in 2009. In order to improve my skill, I set up a simple airgun shooting range in my basement, that's lot of fun! No long driving, no weather limitation and much cheaper in ammo spending. Just ordered a Baikal 46M match pistol from Airgunsource. Excellent service, order this morning, received Canada post notice in the afternoon! Anyone here has experience in this air pistol? Your idea is precious to me.

There is a monthly airgun pistol match over at the canadian airgun forum. Lots of advice over there.

Great gun, simple and reliable. They're probably the most popular entry level 10M gun.
The only 'upgrade' often done, is the grip... but if you're patient, you could get the same result with a little filing and putty.
Safe shooting,
Mike

Wow, Airgunsource is awesome! I placed an order on Wednesday, got my gun on Thursday! However, I am quite disappointed when I start shooting the gun. First, the grip must be modified. My wrist turn red and pain developed just after 20 shots! The grip looks fine but it won't suit any hand on earth. Second, I want to adjust the trigger position and the screw is so tight that I stripped it just after two attempt! It need to be adjusted unless your first finger is 6 inches long. Fortunately, I know a friend who own a machine shop and they have everything to fix the problem. It cost me $20 to remove the screw and replace with a new one!
Third, it comes to the sweet part. This gun is very very accurate, rest on bench, it shoots as good as my Pardini K10. The cocking is smooth and easy too.
Now, I would like to see how it perform as I shoot it more often and I hope that the grip issue will be gone after I customize it.
