what range are we talking about here
>>36941567
like 15- 20 meters maybe
>>36941541
How about like an air horn or some shit that will scare them all away
Killing the seagulls won't help. They will just be replaced by other seagulls.

Wow, what a moron you are. Not only are Airzookas much much cheaper, they are also more effective with less the mess!

Go visit /k/, they can help you. Also fuck scopes, just take the scope off and aim with iron sights if it has any.
>>36942045
red dot > literally anything else
>>36942089
I agree, red dot best dot, but fuck magnified optics, I've always had issues with them.
>>36941541

>>36941541
Dude go to store buy 50 pound bag of rice 30 bucks if that dump out there birds eat it all rice expands stomach they die
Are they flying? You need a little practice to know how much you need to lead shots to hit targets in motion.
Is it a spring piston air rifle? Look up "artillery hold"; the large moving massed in the rifle may adversely affect accuracy
>>36942462
I'm not gonan shoto them while they're flying
it's a nitro piston

Birds tend to fuck off places where they get shot at.
just get the strongest fire crackers you can get or make ur own its quite easy then wrap them around some food light and throw to the them and watch them get blown to pieces
>>36941577
Why the fuck are you using the scope then?
Also hope to fuck you got a .22, anything more is just over kill.
I'd get a little .410 or .22. For that much it should be a decent air rifle though. Sighting in sucks, I highly suggest one of those laser bore gadgets to help.
