Weekly Challenge 6/22 - 6/29

Airgun: Any

Caliber: the smaller the better

Position: Any

Distance: Make it challenging

Challenge: Go into your workshop or kitchen drawer and find something to hang on the bottom of a string (the string should not be taught, but allowed to gentle sway in a breeze), hang the string in front of a blank target, see how many shots it takes you to cut the string.

Prove it: share a picture of you & your airgun from the shooting position and a picture of the target once completed. Or you can get crafty and put together a short video of your accomplishment.

Winner will receive an Action Armor spinning Frog target, a tin of JSB/Predator pellets of their choice, and some Airgun Nation stickers. *Free shipping to the USA

Hi Michael.



where should I post the video?

Regards

Patrick
 
Oh no Patrick already has a cut the string video... and probably at a hundred yards too. I’ve seen what he can do, but I’m still going to join the game! I’m going to be using my Theoben .20 cal. Watch out Patrick!! lol!

No it’s only 77meters. ✌️


yes, Show your shooting Bro! 😉

im not That competitive guy, more the fun guy. And everybody should have fun. 👍🏻
 
Only 77 meters? That’s about 85 yards...and you got it on the second shot. I was thinking about trying it at my 40 yard target but now I’ll just have to go further out. You are going to win the challenge, but I’m going to try at my 60 yard target this evening. Good shooting!

Yes only, that video was done after I got my Impact back out.

That’s true that I got it on the second shot but that could be luck also. 😉

it’s absolutely ok at 40 or even 30, And I really don’t go for it to win anything. The most important thing on such challenges for me is that the shooters have fun, there should be no pressure to nail it at the first shot. That’s what I say to some of my viewers on YouTube that’ll try my #airgunaustriachallenge (split 2 cards with a splitted bullet). On first place Should be the fun part. ✌🏻✌🏻
thanks mate! 👌😉

This is a blast! Here’s my warm up. It’s my 40 yard target, and it’s tie wire instead of string, but it was the first cold shot with no sighters. You can see pellet remains on the wire, and it cleanly split the pellet. If you placed the cards just right you would cut the pellet in half... and cut the two cards!! Who cares if it even cut all the way through the cards, it would be a phenomenal video! I’m like you Patrick, I don’t care a hoot about winning, it’s just so much fun to have air rifles like this that we can do this kind of shooting in our yards! Mind blowing fun. And the neighbors don’t even notice. Please forgive the awful finger, I work with metal! You might also notice some of the other holes have fly remains surrounding them, it’s my fly hunting range!
 
After hours of shooting and filming I've decided to modify the most recent challenge. Apparently its nearly impossible to cut a string (with any size projectile) without it being under tension. Who knew?

The Weekly Target Challenge is also changing into a Monthly Target Challenge. This should give more people the opportunity to try it out without feeling the pressure of such a short timeline.

You can see the July Challenge HERE

Cheers
