Fork hits with steel ammo

887 Views 8 Replies 7 Participants Last post by  Sean Khan
If I shoot 11mm steel balls with 15mm Theraband Gold I get non stop fork hits, this seems to be almost 80% of the time. However, when I target shoot Airsoft BB's, I never get fork hits and I am becoming fairly accurate at hitting small targets withe the BB's. Shooting 11mm steel balls is another story. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. The fork hits are all occurring in exactly the same spot on the fork.

You are shooting 11mm steel with the same setup that you shoot airsoft BB?
You don't say what slingshot you are using, what bands, or whether you shoot through the forks or over the top. But SJAaz suggested maybe the bands that work for airsoft don't have enough power to put 11mm steel through or over the forks.
