I have the Beeman PT 17. At 20 yards it will put 10 shot into a dime if you do your part. I put a long eye relief scope on mine and off of sandbags it is amazing.

Isn't it awful how much pain they put you in to find out what's wrong? "Think cattle prod" just gives me the willies.
May the good Lord ease your pain and and give you comfort.

I have one of the folding saws as well. Very much like the one pictured above. As he indicates it will cut through just about anything and the effort involved is minimal.

If you shoot black powder, you'd be advised to stock up. I'm told that all they will ship is the fake stuff.
