    New World Record Longest Airgun Hit

    I thought you might like to see an interview that Shepard Humphries did with me about this record. Shepard is from the team that holds the world record for the longest center fire shot at 4.4 miles. Maybe it will give someone a different perspective on the whole issue of shooting at these...

    New app from Applied Ballistics and automatic update of old app

    I am a very very angry user. I was a happy user before you changed the App for the new one without my permission, the conversion of dozens of profiles is totally screwed up, the data is screwed up, the lack of clarity of the profile selection is totally horrible. all this without a choice user...

    FX True Ballistic Chronograph - Testing & Results

    as you can see, the real measurement is only the last photo from .308 centerfire, the other BC results jump by tens of %, while the reality is that the given BC slugs do not differ by even 1%. Moreover, giving measurements at a greater distance of hundreds of yards is complete nonsense. Example...

    FX True Ballistic Chronograph - Testing & Results

    Ballisticboy and Scotchmo I fully agree with you, the inability to easily process data (in Excel) is one of the worst features of modern chronometers. I have pretty much all the important chronometers these days LabRadar, Garmin and the aforementioned FX chrono. I choose LabRadar for BC...

    Altaros Airgun Challenge - 3 Hit from 5 Shots

    rodjava and Healthservices very nice shooting. I also solved this and struggled with it for a long time. It is very difficult to hold the camera, aim and also press the distance measurement correctly. Finally I solved it with 3d printed parts. I made a holder for the TrigerCam, which is...

    New World Record in format 3-Shot at 927 yards

    I really appreciate it Allen. You have access to a beautiful shooting range and believe me, it is a much better option than shooting outside of it. For example, in this video while shooting I have to watch with my other eye a monitor divided into 4 screens + 2 other displays where I check both...

    New World Record in format 3-Shot at 927 yards

    I understand that you have a lot of questions and I would like to answer them, but we do not want to make the same mistake as in the past. When we gave instructions a few years ago on how a modern airgun should look like in the form of prototypes, which were misused by other manufacturers, we...

    Altaros Airgun Challenge - 3 Hit from 5 Shots

    thank you Matthias, yes I'm really happy with this shooting setup. definitely nice shooting, but even though I don't like it, I have to point out that the target size is 1.5 MOA, your 8.5cm would be fine if it were a circle. Unfortunately, for the size of the rectangle in MOA (area size), the...

    New World Record in format 3-Shot at 927 yards

    It's quite funny that even his fake record of 2060 yards was already broken a few months ago ;) :cool:

    New World Record in format 3-Shot at 927 yards

    thank you Rod 1:6.5 It is a slug designed for the 6mm barrel for centerfire rifles. So cal. 6mm Goal is to deliver a tuned rifle and suitable specific ammunition. So no laboring, but a rifle designed straight out of the box for long-range shooting. Airgun calibers are just a matter of...

    New World Record in format 3-Shot at 927 yards

    yes BC is around the given value. It is necessary to realize that with the same weight centerfire bullets have a larger BC, since it is calculated primarily in the supersonic range, when their shape is significantly different than for the subsonic range, but still it is very close in ballistic...

    Altaros Airgun Challenge - 3 Hit from 5 Shots

    As I wrote before, wind will always be a problem and even though I've been trying to learn to estimate wind all my life, I'm also trying to find ways to limit its effect with a new developments. I think the new generation of Altaros slugs and a suitably powerful airgun system are helping a lot...

    New World Record in format 3-Shot at 927 yards

    We would like to present our new Airgun World Record, which differs from our previous records mainly in the format, where the goal is not to hit the target at the longest distance, but according to the 3-Shot Record format, where it is necessary to hit...
