Thanks,
That ammo had my hit percentages down so I put the paper up, to check my suspicion.
Also the gun sweats moving from the AC out doors, and I was thinking that was affecting the warm up shots which proved true as the flyers were prevalent in the early shots.
I really need to set up video so that I can monitor the shot sequence.

Hello @.20calguy
Looks like most of those shots were right on target. You have a really nice looking range

beerthief....fantastic offhand shooting in my book

Here are the results from those two days. No real shot count just shooting till dark approximately 50 rounds.
It was about twenty five clicks of elevation between these two pellets at 75y.
To re-zero my elevation I simply referred to a photo of my turrets, then I shot an X with my first shot. A fun start to the shoot.
I can see why I had better percentages with the 13.73's.
The flyer high and right was done when I had brain malfunction and didn't remember where I I had been anchoring my left hand. I rested my fingers over the cheeks piece and shot that flyer.
I'm thinking that the upper strikes may be to much cheek weight, and to light of a cheek weld making the lower strikes?
Next time I will start with a click or two of left.

I did that on shot number two in this group and almost just quit, but I pushed on and got a .47 c to c at I think it was 72 yards at that time. That range is 75y now.
Whoops adding some info!
That group is 10 shots at 72 yards. The flyer is #2 literally
. LolThe rifle is an FX Crown gen 2, .30 cal 600mm barrel, An Athelon scope, 6X24X50 FFP, 44.75 JSB Pellets.

Hello everyone,
Another great morning with very low wind conditions. So it is time to pick a paper target that will give the Avenger a full challenge. I still consider this “8 by 8 Competition Target” as one of the hardest to shoot. I love it when I shoot the center eight perfect .
