Post your confirmed long PELLET head shots.

Jump to latest Follow Reply
Here is a video from 8 years ago I did on a couple ground squirrel kills. Its when I used a different setup than I do now "lower quality scope" and to make it worse it was really hot and lots of mirage. So not my best scope cam video but it got the job done back then.

I used my AA S510 .22 cal @ 28 ish FPE JSB Heavy 18.1 gr. First shot 93 yds and second was 98 - 100 yds. I have quite a few shots over 70 yds in my videos but I didnt label all of them and I click in drop for shots. I cant remember all my hits:ROFLMAO:

Assuming it was an oversight on the OP's part to not consider long-range air pistol head-shots, I'll post mine.

Yes, I was going for the BRAIN shot (not to be confused with a head shot). Lasered distance was 58 yards. The Benjamin Marauder pistol shoots 18.1 grain JSBs 700 FPS, for just shy of 20 foot pounds.

Assuming the accepted shot-difficulty multiplier of 1.575X in field target competitions from air rifle to air pistol is realistic, and I do, this pistol shot equates roughly to a 91 yard bunny brain-shot with a rifle.

I've since put walnut furniture on this fine hunting pistol-

Hi AirNGasman,
I’ve just read my original post here and I don’t think there was any prejudice against air pistols, only requirements were pellets, head shots, DRT and over 70 yards, and you defiantly meet those requirements.
Looks lovely dressed up in walnut 👌🏻
Pete.
