American Air Arms The Evol Mini other new task....

[_CTAIRGUNNER_]

In addition to the minis newest task (bird permission on a local farm) , I am also tasking it with 50 yard bench competitions.

There are a handful I plan on attending in NY and a few more local ones this year as I branch out beyond my home range and friends homes.

Here is how I plan on shooting it at these shoots, just a little show and tell here.
*Rifle - American Air Arms Mini .22
*Projectile - JSB 18.13
*Optic - Athlon Helos 2-12 BTR w/NF 6 bolt Xtreme duty rings
*Bipod - AccuTac FC4 w/ Bipodext CF extension
*Moderator - Bullysyclone Wylie Kanz Titanium and CF
*Shooting bag - Armageddon Gear

I will be practicing with my Paradigm .30 this weekend for 100 yard bench coming up at the Northeast Airgun Classic but I will also be setting this up at 50 yards to do some practicing

I like the bipod extension.

Hey CTairgunner, Did you program that bad boy into your ballistics program. She would be in another zipcode with slugs. Inquiring mines waiting. Lol.

Nice!! How accurate and to how far does that thing shoot.

If I do my part it will do MOA at 100 yards with 18.13.

I haven't yet, I kind of just really like where it is set at haha

Wow! Uber-cool!!

I really need to get a mini at some point. Much easier to carry around than the Paradigm. Have you done a side by side comparison between the two on target?

My paradigm is a 30 caliber bench rifle, with 8 inches of barrel length on the mini and the mini shoots a projectile less than half the paradigms weight. The comparison would not be fair. I can print MOA at 100 with the mini if I do my part. Thats all that needs to be said about this little 10" barreled utility pew.

Buy my Theoben so I can get a 30 as well and do a solid comparison. lol

Have 3 EvoLs. The mini is my go to around the house. I shoot it out to 103 yards most of the time and knock off collard doves, pigeons, and starlings at that distance with the jsb 18.13s. I would say about 90% of the time I hit my target. I actually had a Leshiy before getting the Mini as my compact. No regrets.

Quick question. What scope are you using? Im looking for a lightweight scope for my mini that also has IR, dont need high mag, I just have aging eyes that need IR and let more light in the glass
