TX200 MKIII at 50-Yards with AA 8.4 Diabolo

I posted some work with the AA 10.3's previously. I don't shoot 8.4 grain as often but they do pretty well. Here is a video using my TX200 MKIII in .177 (FAC) after being rebuilt with standard AA FAC parts. There is an addition of a 3MM washer in front of the top hat. This washer is supposed to help smooth out the shot cycle when using heavier pellets. I think it helps, but it could be a placebo.

I am running a Vortex Diamondback Tactical ffp 6x24 50mm scope. I am shooting from a bench using an Allen rest with a Protektor front and rear bag. This video checks out the AA Field Diablo 8.4 grain pellets at 50 yards. These are 4.52mm head sorted to 8.4 grains. There was some wind at times. There was also a biting fly attack, which messed with me while shooting target 1. I didn't delete nor make excuses. The video does have a time log and it is noted in the time log. There are 3 bulls. The sighter target has 5 shots for the 5 shot crew. Target 1 has 12 shots as I threw one and felt 1 needed a redo do to the attack. One is an opening flyer, and the second flyer following the bug attack. Target 2 is a standard 10 shot bull.

 
Still pic's of targets/ groups to view along with the vid would do nice . i just hate promoting/ supporting cancle culture woketube.
There are still is the tube as well.

Thermacell is the answer. It works very well at the range. I use the old school butane ones when I shoot 3D. No messy DEET.


I spray my shoes with


No bugs at the ranges.

Knats showed up here , pretty thick and i no longer have livestock that attracts them in years.

Wyats funny is how there attracted to the breach of the gun . I mean near trying to clog the action and leade area. I guess thats better then in my eyes, ears, nose snd mouth. Lol.

Nothing really works on them and i just think they ( most any pest bug) have built up immunity to thr sprays and all used over the many years . Ill put up with knats vs a bad rash of mosquitoes any day . Still a pain bit im not chewed on and itching .🥴

🤪 I generally ignore the knats and mosquitoes. They are pests but not stopping me. This horse fly was about the size of a nickel and felt like he took a dime size chunk from me. Needless to say it messed with my concentration.
Don't jinx me on the yella flies .. lucky not around yet .(yet). Them sukers land, bite, leave welt and gone about half way of being swatted ..lol. there the worse..lol

So i have no need to suppoet or use utube at all.

Thanks for the pictures .. i can better enjoy your shots😉

I appreciate your position. We will probably need to agree to disagree on this one. I live in a world of peer reviewed research as the low bar and had over 20 professional publications before getting into administration. So I am not so concerned about scientific review and critiques from others. I stay out of the politics in general in these cases.

Ok, maybe why things are as they are today / no involvement ? I think a guy can post vids here with out using utube or any like platform. Edit and post straight off device or computer. ( you can still use it for utube for utube use).

I like watching a guys vids , but not on utube.. still pictures work for me anyway. 👍
