Issue #34: Scope basics & scope terms + Q&A

Scopes are the single most popular accessory that airgunners buy, so it's time for a refresher course on optics. In this issue, Tom reviews reticles, parallax, adjustable objectives and more.

In the Q&A section, a listener asks about the apparent unavailability of .22 caliber pellets in local stores. Tom reveals the reason for that and where you can buy all the .22 pellets you need. Another listener has two young children who want to learn to shoot. He asks for suggestions to teach them proper gun handling and the right gun to start out younger kids. Listen along as Tom helps him with a sure-fire gun that'll keep the kids on the right path.
