YES, that would be the BIG BS 2024! "Someone else" did not shoot a .05 MOA, HALF-INCH group at 1000 yards with an airgun. Any airgun. Even just a three-shot group.

My new airgun. Can you identify it by name?

Im assuming the OP fat fingered his keyboard, I do it literally everday hahah. I think its meant to read "0.5 MOA", which is still crazy. My precision powder burners cant do that @1000yds, at least not with me behind the wheel. My standard for a barrel is ~0.25-0.5 MOA at 100yds, but the further away the paper gets the human error really shows.

While that is very impressive for an air rifle, I dont think anyone would agree you are shooting a 0.5moa group at 1000yds. Your grouping at the posted distance is several feet in diameter. Sounds like you are above the sound barrier, how fast does that monster sling slugs? Pretty neat setup you have there.

Ya its pretty clear in the video that .5 moa accuracy being claimed is not true. I didnt watch the whole video but of the 5 or 6 shots I seen one may have been a hit but its unclear if it was a direct hit or the slug hit the dirt right in front of the can then hit the can. I didnt see any holes in the can when the drone flew over to it.

Well, that was almost as convincing as videos of unidentified flying objects. But not as convincing as some photos of Bigfoot.

Thank you to all the membership who chimed in so far. Special thanks to those members who "stayed on topic" with their post.
It was not my intention to cause a debate or stir up trouble with a long distance shooting pissing contest.
But only to show what is possible if you put your mind and soul into a custom project. As well as a lot of luck!
I will reveal the final product in a few weeks. In the meantime, I made some final tweaks to custom chassis.
Finally, for those that challenge my "200 yard card splitting" I invite you to shoot with me at
my club range at the Diablo Rod and Gun club in Concord California. I shoot almost every Wednesday from lane #8 and always at 200 yards. If the conditions are right, you may also split a card at 200 yards with either of
my 2 pcp guns.
Here are a few pic of the tweaks I made
Enjoy!

Pretty much this. I've seen the targets of those saying they can split playing cards at 200 yards. The target behind the card looks like a shotgun splatter. This is not a repeatable endeavor and I'm calling bs here.
