What springer did you shoot today?

[crowski]

Screwed up sending a post another post, wow. Too much shooting. 58F and never seen melt this fast. 3 days ago this was all ice.

Shot a HW97 .20. Stock screws were almost falling out.

Tightened the groups. Tried different lead, amazing different. Another 4 hour day. Been burning through the lead. Crow

Grabbed the Hw77 Stainless out of the safe. Felt good to shoot even if was only short. First time shooting any air rifle since before going into hospital. Lost 7 kilos in two weeks couldn’t eat anything except custard and scrambled eggs. Bloody pain unbearable. Doctor rang last night with results, clear margins on the invasive cancer and unknown margins on the carcinoma insitu. Apparently everything was cauterized so they couldn’t evaluate the margins, oh well.
Straight from the safe, cold, top group 5 shots, bottom group 10 shots. 30 metres Shooting 12.65 Baracuda Greens. I adjusted the scope 3 clicks to the right after the first group, probably too far also dropped down for some reason.
Who said 22 cal Weihrauch barrels aren’t accurate.

What was the torque on the adapter. Just curious as I have the same set-up on a 95 making 17FPE and haven't noticed any movement.

I wound up drilling and tapping mine for a 10/32 grub head Allen screw. I also tighten past recommended torque.

Stunning day, 68 F, Took a HW97 .20. out again.

10 shots 37 yds.

Superb day of shooting. Probably got a sun burn.
Always have a dime handy. I put an earth magnet in post and always holds your dime.

Never look for a dime now. I circled it.

Thanks Bandito, I scored 11 aluminum discs and 6 super heavy duty plates. Going up tomorrow. Really like the aluminum discs. Every hit creates a crater.

Going to try welding the spring onto the goat and then a plate. Crow

Take your boots off and use your toes to count. Cans are best. Crow

Ha ha. Now I’m going to have to. Was thinking the same when taking pic. Crow

Shot my FWB 150 today. Had a short period with no wind and shot a couple 30yd cards. Neither were better than my best previous attempts but close. Very consistent. I'm still obsessed with this rifle but have a 300 on the way.

 

[TnCnDn]

This in .177

 

[RCope]

I'm not experienced enough to recognize it on sight, but with the gold accents and trigger, and the custom stock, and the vintage scope, it looks like you have a winner. Is this just a teaser? ;-) Cheers!

Shot a penny in half at 30 yards with the 97 before.

 

[Bandito]

Put holes in coins before, never severed the halves. Sounds like lyrics to an acid rock song, eh? Was using those pellets with the skirt that looks like a sabot with the hard alloy pellet inside it. The skirt stopped as the pellet penetrated the target. Similar projectiles are being made again these days. Be Well Brothers, Bandito.

I shot my R10 in .177 today, it has a little bit of a twang and buzz, I'm gonna have to remedy that one day maybe with the TBT or vortex ?? Not sure yet
