This video discusses the utility of .22LR ammunition for firearms training. While acknowledging its cost-effectiveness for high-volume practice, the instructor emphasizes that .22LR is not ideal for developing fundamental recoil management and grip pressures due to its minimal recoil. It is best suited for skills like target transitions and accuracy-focused drills where recoil is less of a factor. The instructor also warns against switching between .22LR and larger calibers within the same session due to the significant recoil difference.
This video from Shooting Gear Reviews, presented by Ben, outlines three primary reasons to own an airgun in addition to firearms: accessibility, usefulness, and prepping applications. Airguns offer easier acquisition without background checks and allow for shooting in more locations, like backyards, providing more practice time. They are also versatile for pest control and survival scenarios, with some models being quiet and requiring no external power source beyond manual pumping. The presenter emphasizes that airguns are not replacements for firearms but valuable complements to a collection.
