What Paper Target Did You Shoot Today

I’m

While the Avenger may be the darling of the litter, that Revere is awsum. Seems very consistent. That's unregulated, right?

No Ross, this is the regulated model.

Found time to shoot a couple 10M indoor cards today. My scope was still set to 50’ so I was holding over 4-5 hash marks. I should have zeroed my scope at 10M but I was lazy and in a rush.

On 01-31-24, indoors at 20 yards (measured), from a table, sitting, using my 12 FPE .177 FX Impact M3 and a M16A1 target - I shot a sub 1 MOA 5 pellet group of 0.191" Edge to Edge. 1 MOA at 20 yards is 0.209".

According to my log book this was my 221st target since 01-01-24.

Tim, very very special cards! You're ability to focus that well on each shot is fantastic!

Thanks guys. I wish I could claim it was shot offhand but sadly I must confess it was shot from a wobbly bench on wheels that sometimes has a mind of its own.

Thomas, another excellent card and it's nice to see your barrel being non pellet picky!

Hello @Ranchibi

You know we want all "hits" on the MOA circle, but if you look most of the "misses" are really close. However still a miss shooting a paper target but that is a dead squirrel at 25-yards, times 30 .

It looks like the CTS‘ don’t like your barrel as much as JSBs.

 

[manabeknives]

i think they mis labled ..should be near-center I was thinking of trying that brand...but maybe not..Great shooting on your part Thomas!

Tried different speeds at 50 yards. Used MRD 25.39 weighed In a RAW HM1000x .22. Not seeing much of a difference when changing speeds, but a few more to try out
practice,practice

 

[Ranchibi]

Mike, your are doing your part and so is your RAW! The misses are the MRD's. Are the old/newer ones out yet?

Not yet. I should get a notification when they are going to be shipped.

i think the most positive experience i can get from using these current MRD's( they are terrible) is not letting my last shot affect the next. I am starting to get used to Head-scratching errors and able to get to the next shot without dwelling on "how did that happen?" In a match, i tend to do this. And there are a lot of those moments when shooting these. i got to take away something positive from this.

Hello everyone,

OK, I shot the last two “re-shoot” pellets on a Full 25-Yard MOA target this morning. These scored very close to the original 10-shot test. The Sniper definitely does not like the H&N Baracuda 18gr, however it did shoot the heavier JTS 21.53gr pellet fairly well. None of the pellets that I re-tested shot as well as the JSB Jumbo Heavy 18.13gr, so I need to spend a bit more time trying to fine tune the rifle to shoot the JSB.

WoW ,,,the "near-centers" are better than the barracudas in your rifle..that is interesting! Do you think it is the quality of the pellet, or the weight that is making the difference?

I really do not need to buy more pellets, but i am scratching barracudas off the list
Great shots Thomas

Hello everyone,

Great shooting conditions early this morning before the sun rises above the trees. I figured that I had better shoot some paper targets before the winds get to blowing too much so I set some targets out at 25-yards. Shot a few times at a warm up target and the Sniper XR was shooting so good that I decided to shoot an 8 by 8 Competition target.

"before the sun rises above the trees." unimaginably early !

Hello everyone,

My last card for the morning is shooting the ole Bad JSB Jumbo Heavy 18.13gr right out of the Tin. Couple of the skirts were missing a small area and a lot were deformed and yet I scored a Perfect 30-Count ? What can I say, the Sniper XR likes JSB pellets
