Hello everyone,
Just had to shoot another 25-yard at the New target even though the wind has now picked up to 10-15. Tied my first card but I did use a 22 Plug on two of the Bulls. Both of my flags at 10-Meters and at 25-Yards were at least blowing in the same direction and at about the same speed.
Range: Outdoor 25 - Yards
Rifle: Brocock Sniper XR .22 caliber
Scope: Athlon Argos BTR Gen2 10-40x56
Pellets: JSB Jumbo Heavy 18.13gr
FPS: 834
FPE: 28
Wind: 10 to 15 mph

Thomas! Wonderful cards you "enhanced" and wonderful shooting! Gonna print some out now but need to put new ink cartridges in....
...THANK YOU!Upvote 0
I did some target shooting today with my .177 vet at 43 yards . Then 4 targets at 22 yards . I was mostly shooting the 10.4 baracudas and fx branded JBS 10.3g and a couple using CPHPs . Wind was a little better than yesterday but still had to wait for it to calm .

Hello everyone,
Shooting early just after daybreak to take advantage of the wind conditions, currently at only 5-10 mph. Wind will increase up to 10 to 25 mph a bit later on. Shot the new Two Bulls Target again and increased my score by one Bull, using a scoring plug on #4 just barely missed and I goofed on #8.

The FX 10.3s are what I went with . Also the Crossman brown box 10.3s are accurate in my shorty .
It does not like the .177 Hades. It takes a bunch of shots afterwards w other pellets to get the poi back . They won't be shot out of my Vet again .

Hello @Headshots
I am guessing that you support the rifle both front and rear on bags. That is some mighty good shooting at that distance with that short rifle

Hello everyone,
I have been using the Avenger for the last month or so just to shoot Squirrels so it only gets one or two shots each day. So I decided to readjust the scope and do a bit of benchrest and shoot some paper targets with it this morning. Not surprised that it shot a perfect 200 on the first card because it hasn’t missed a tree rat even out to 45 yards.
Range: Outdoor 10-Meters
Rifle: Air Venturi Avenger Gen I, Regulated, .22 caliber
Scope: Aztec Emerald 5.5-25x50 FFP
Pellets: Rifle Premium 18.67gr
FPS: ?
FPE: ?
Wind: 5 to 10 mph

Hello @manabeknives
Those are huge holes for the .22 cal, but that is the result of the cardboard backing being blown away from previous shots. I try to offset a new paper target on the cardboard from previous holes but it doesn't always work. The Avenger has kept the Vultures well feed so far this Spring, we have eliminated around 2 dozen to date.

Hello everyone,
Wanted to re-set the Avenger and Scope for shooting squirrels and I placed the target on the 10-Meter range. The first shot was aiming at the Center Bull and note where the POI was ( blue star ). I then zeroed the scope and shot 5 rounds into each of the five Bulls. The Avenger is now ready to do some tree rat pesting .

Hello everyone,
Just a bit windy but I decided to shoot one of my hardest paper targets to score on. Using a .22 cal Scoring Plug ( if you shoot with a 22 caliber ), when you cannot see any portion of the Inner Ring you receive 10 points. Any shot within the Outer Ring scores 5 points.
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: 10 to 15 mph
