I took the .30 out today to shoot a little before she gets sent to AOA to have the Huggett fitted. It was a little windy and very inconsistent (5-15 mph from about 10 to 11 o'clock ) so I figured I would just try out my video and editing stuff. Target is set at 60 yards except first two shots on steel swingers which was at 150 yards. I did notice that even at that distance vertical impact of pellets very consistent only horizontal spread from the wind. If you look close you can see the pellets crossing frame and impacting target. Before the two 150 yard shots I tested data from chairgun at that range with a full mag and hit the far right plate 3 times and plate next to it once. Normally I wouldn't take shots at that distance In that wind. The final mag is from 60 yards on the swingers.


Cameras:
Sony handycam HDR-XR100
Casio EX-ZR400 W/ Eagle vision mount.
Pellets:
44.75 JSb
Target:
Taylor .22 rimfire 3 1/2" swingers 3/16 thick.

 
Nice shooting. The target shots were amazing. Horizontally and Vertically consistent with the pellets moving only due to the wind. This indicates a very steady hold, grip and trigger pull and follow through on the bobcat. The 30 does have recoil and with the hugget fixed, the recoil will reduce a bit giving you greater consistency while shooting. 

Liked the spinners getting whacked as well. At 150 yards the power with which this gun hits is amazing. Will estimate the power to be around 35~45 fpe. Perfect for taking game. 

Great shooting Dave and super video quality. . Thanks for sharing.
