    30-Yard Challenge

    A lot of people would not mind being stuck at 198! Fireworks on TV tonight. DC, NY, etc!

    New RAW TM1000x - first range outing

    Update: I ordered a couple of tins of the 13.4 KO’s and shot them at 40y yesterday. They were terrible and could not even get them to group for me. I did not Chrony them because they were so bad and I quickly went back to the FX 13.4g “trash can” pellets, which shot great for me for the 30y...

    Very nice, love the laminate blue stock and silver barrel look.

    30-Yard Challenge

    Excellent David! Post a picture of that Annie next time you get a chance. Looks like .177 pellet holes. 13.4g, what velocity? Pretty good 30Y accuracy for a 10M rifle! JK, 😊

    30-Yard Challenge

    I can’t buy a 190 40Y Masters card, and you shot four of them Ed! 40Y Masters is so unforgiving and you made it look easy. We know it’s not. Great shooting with that Crown. Btw- the .22 caliber Crowns have been at the top of some N50 match results around the country also.

    Thanks Tim. In my Revere, the FX Atomic 15.89 shoots groups and score cards a bit better than JSB ( or equivalent) 18.1 g. The N50 cards for the Revere .22 at factory set velocities from Daystate just don’t have enough power in my rifle. It’s fantastic out to 40 yards, but trying to get...

    Always enjoy seeing the monthly results of the Meeker N50 shooters. The RF shooters all did very well despite the wind, but ‘hats off’ to the pellet guys reading that wind. Your Thomas did well as did the shooter. Tim - Can you find out from Rick Rizor if he used the 15.89 or 18.1g pellet...

    Scotty - looks like a solid 198 to me. Go back one or two pages and Ed posts the link to get the.177/ .22 cal scoring plug - cheap. Very good card! Tom

    FX chronograph v2

    I know this is an old thread, but after using the FX Pocket Radar Chrony for a couple years, I got fed up with missed shots and returning to FX-USA for constant repairs and warranty issues. Most of the time, it did what I needed. However, now I splurged and paid a much higher price than is...

    RAW Rapid Taming the RAW

    Mike Just saw your original post. Sub-MOA at 50Y will put a smile on your face! I have a RAW HM1000x .22 with Poly barrel for several years, and it’s my favorite bench rest rifle for 50 and 100 yard practice targets. Have you had a chance to shoot yours at 100y? The MK1 and MK2 34g both...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Very true for competitions like EBR, NAC, RMAC, etc., but this target challenge was created in February 2022 for fun with no time limit. I generally try and shoot my cards in 20 minutes or less to simulate a true competition. Also, I have a tough time waiting for an ideal wind condition and...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Yep, I kind of agree. I think trying to master several different wind holds and conditions with changing wind shifts while shooting 20 or 24 bulls is too complicated. I think Joe is on to something here. Thanks!

    30-Yard Challenge

    Ok, we are all anxiously waiting. Nobody on this entire thread has even seen a 30Y Challenge card shot or posted at 50 yards with these sized rings. Definitely not a 200-19x! Looking forward to seeing your card.

    30-Yard Challenge

    You’re probably right, but clearly there must be some rules of thumb that we have collectively learned while shooting these cards in the wind. I’m just trying to get a bead on some more experienced target shooters, who consistently score well, and in windy conditions.

    30-Yard Challenge

    Joe, I was thinking about this a bit more. I think one of my issues with wind reading while shooting a card is that I try an adapt to my near flag directional changes for each bull, and then try and estimate my next shot/hold based on the current wind condition. As an example. I am finding...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Great 40Y Masters card. Anything north of 190 is really good for this small bull at 40Y. I understand waiting for your ideal wind condition and using that same hold for each bull, but how do you not look thru the scope when you move from one bull to the next? Also know that the Thomas rifles...
