Ok, the good the bad and the ^%$# UGLY. Weather was awesome, literally zero wind, just a very light occasional breeze, I had my Maverick VP .25 and my Maverick .22 compact, Saw a total of 5 squirrels, they must have been on spring break. We lazed the ones we saw and, OH DAMN they are at 100 plus yards, guess who wasn't set up for it? I had to take some ranging shots and just as I completed a survey crew set up right behind where 2 of the squirrels were popping up, so scratch them. Had another pop up at about 130 yards, made a wild guess on elevation missed then tried again, it sounded like I connected but....when my buddy went out to retrieve it it ran off. Thought I hit another in front of the road crew but my buddy said it ran off. Scrounged in a few trash cans and got some cans and paper plates to see if I could get a 100 yard range, also a few small pieces of pottery a small limb and some beer cans, just nailed them but when it came to actually hitting one of those damn furry targets, not happening. Tried the .22 compact and it wasn't playing well for some reason, then a couple of pellets got jammed, I brought my Delrin rod to push them out but one was in so scratch that gun until I could get home to take it apart, note, it was really wedged in the beginning of the barrel. The .25 was doing ok then it went screwy, on the paper plates I had no idea where in the heck the pellets were going. I tried some RMR pellets, fyi they make them for FX, I found this out when I called for help on speeds and general setup. It seems that FX designed the Superior barrel for these pellets. The guy at RMR put a Lothar Walter on his impact 3/4" groups at 100 yards. He recommends the .22 pellets, they shoot better than the .25's. I'm going to spend the bucks on a new barrel, just can decided on a regular Superior or a Heavy Superior, the difference is twist rate, the Heavy is a faster twist rate. I haven't reviewed the videos but not much to show so may not even bother. I think the Trigger cam worked fine, shall see. Going to try again next week or maybe Friday earlier.
