Let's see your most obscure target

[SorenDrost]

Have my own private range out by some family in the country Possible to shoot out to 200 meters, but at the moment I only have metal targets from 25 meters and then every 25 out to 150 meters

Possible to shoot out to 200 meters

So, you are going to shoot 0.177 to 200 Meters? You showed that you are shooting slugs. Just wondering, what weight, velocity, etc. are you shooting to get that far?

I shot my own 16 gn slugs out to 190 meters so far Swaged using a die set from GMI and I shot them out of my Daystate Red Wolf .177 HP at 1020 FPS.

According to my calculations , that is just shy of 37FPE, which is a heck of a lot for a 0.177! Nice! I posted this thread a few months ago about going through trans-sonic range with a Diabolo, but slugs typically have a higher BC. I'm interested if you have calculated the BC for your slugs? It must be pretty high to make it to 190 meters, and be able to hit something. If you haven't calculated BC yet, I have proven that you can move your Fx Chronograph to just before the target to get the final velocity.

Anyway, you are already doing something that I was interested in, so perhaps this should be a separate thread, but I'm still interested in hearing what you have to say. Thanks for the info @SorenDrost !

3/8 inch Target Forge spinner target at 89 yards.
There is a 7/8 inch hole in the center of that 11 inch plate that has a thinner plate behind it so I can hear when I hit or miss after the paint gets shot up.
