    You need to learn about:-

    How to hold a spring gun.
    Matching pellets to your barrel.
    Different types of pellets and why pointed are usually rubbish.
    Rangefinding - your pellet will follow an arc or trajectory meaning you have to aim higher or lower at various distances.
    Wind will blow your pellet upto 15cm off target at 40m (v. strong wind) - you need to be able to read the wind and allow for it.
    Different reticle types and how they can help in choosing an aimpoint for distance and wind.

    I'm sure every one cares, but just bear in mind you have come on to an established forum and this being the internet we can only judge you on what you say and how you come across!
