Hello Everyone,

Shot this paper target in a reverse / anti-clock wise direction. Started at #20 and went up to 5, then across to #1, then down to #16 and on. This had me reposition the rifle a bit more and gave me a chance to consider each shot a little longer more.

Range: Outdoor 10-Meters
Rifle: Brocock Sniper XR .22 caliber
Scope: Athlon Argos BTR Gen2 10-40x56
Pellets: JSB Jumbo Heavy 18.13gr
FPS: 834
FPE: 28
Wind: 5 to 10 mph @ 3 O’clock

Thomas, great counter clockwise shooting!
 
Hello everyone,

Well this morning mother nature has taken a break from sever thunderstorms and high winds so I was able to shoot several paper targets. Almost no wind and the flags were not moving at all so I set up on my 25-yard range.

Rifle: Brocock Sniper XR .22 caliber
Scope: Athlon Argos BTR Gen2 10-40x56
Pellets: JSB Jumbo Heavy 18.13gr

Just a little fun at 50 meters or 55 yards with my Daystate Alpha Wolf Blue .177 HP 🙂🎯💙

Shooting pellets, which has been quite a while, since I have been testing a lot with different slugs in the development of the slug barrels for Daystate and BRK 👍🙃🙂🎯

- Daystate Alpha Wolf Blue .177 HP
- JSB 8.44 gr pellets at 845 FPS / 13.4 FPE
- Vector Optics Continental 5-30x56 34 mm FFP

A little windy today and I really tried to stay in the red center of the target 🙃🙂🎯 Not doing a very good job, but had a blast 👍🙂🎯

Soren, fantastic shooting with your .177 DS Alpha Wolf! LOL.....I guess I remembered correctly that you are the incredible.177 slug guy!
 
Over 2 days, middle is my sight in shot area, left hole is a pellet from yesterday on the right on the T is from this morning, a pellet followed by a slug. Happy with my progress on hold and sight picture consistency as of late, but, that could change in a heartbeat...😂

Hello @Ranchibi

Nice shooting, however you need to move down just a bit and shoot at those "circles" below the numbers :ROFLMAO: :D:D

Hello everyone,

OK taking into consideration what @cavedweller stated about right handed shooters, I paid extra close attention today. I did over compensate a bit on the first three shots but settled in on the remaining seventeen targets. I also paid close attention to the wind velocity and direction which was 5 to 10 mph and at the 2 o’clock direction relative to my position. I tried to shoot with the Center Reticle Dot just a hair to the right of the vertical cross line.

Range: Outdoor 10-Meters
Rifle: Brocock Sniper XR .22 caliber
Scope: Athlon Argos BTR Gen2 10-40x56
Pellets: JSB Jumbo Heavy 18.13gr
FPS: 834
FPE: 28
Wind: 5 to 10 mph @ 2 O’clock

Hello everyone,

Well my Avenger performed double duty this morning and did an excellent job on both. First I heard a squirrel barking in the front yard and I looked to see one up in the oak tree. So I turned the power down to the lowest setting on the scope. Cracked open the front door just enough to slip the rifle through and put the cross hairs on Mr. Fuzzynuts and dropped him. Turned the power back up on the scope, set out a new paper target and shot this card.

Range: Outdoor about 20 and then 25-Yards
Rifle: Air Venturi Avenger Gen I, Regulated, .22 caliber
Scope: Aztec Emerald 5.5-25x50 FFP
Pellets: JSB Jumbo Heavy 18.13gr
FPS: ?
FPE: ?
Wind: 15 to 25 mph

Thomas, thank you and you are correct! I just enjoy your target card so much, I try and use every bit of it....😂👍🤗! I actually need to make a new target box as this one is pretty shot up (it's just a cardboard box filled with clothing).....so when I shoot, the outermost sides are the best places to shoot as the paper doesn't tear there.....😂. I have bullet traps but they are kinda LOUD comparatively....
