Others What paper target did you shoot today?

[Danman]

Somebody is getting their barrel cleaned!
TX200 @ 30Y, zero wind....worst performance ever. Best group was 7/8inch...I was shooting it last week at 40Y and it was spraying fliers i noticed. I included a card of what it normally does. Started on the green dot and first shot was low (normal), I tried pulling it tight into my shoulder and next 3 went way left. It's usually tight by the second or third group...not tonight.

2nd challenge completed this time ran some slugs at 30 yrd, they seemed to preform better than the MKII pellets. Probably need to slow the pellets down.

Slugs make a very nice punch in the paper. I typically have to push a pellet through the target when things are iffy.

Nice work .

Nice shooting!

I like the Sniper platform a lot, and I would be over the moon if mine had a wood stock .

Shot the S510 last night...pellets vs slugs all at 40 & 50Y. The slugs are definitely not what I'd pick for competition lol, but they are minute of starling anyways. When testing slugs or odd ammo I always re-shoot my last group with the guns normal food (18.13 Jsbs in this case). Figured the barrel may need a cleaning but pleasantly surprised its better than when I started!

I’ve been shooting the 30y challenge for 2 years now. My endeavor started with an FX Maverick Compact 177. The rifle suffered from POI shift. I sold it to a person that was going to use it for pesting, which it was perfectly good for. The best that rifle did was 197.
I bought a Daystate Huntsman Revere Safari 177 in the fall of 2023. Special thanks to @AirgunsofAZ My son was born in August 2023, so my shooting time diminished. Learning the rifle and finding the right pellet took time, basically 2 years. I settled on JSB Monster Redesigns as the best performer.
Then came finding the best rests for me. I like bags, and decided that was what I was willing to invest in the hobby. I had an old Caldwell bag that I never really liked, until recently when I removed some media. The rear bag has been consistent, a Wiebad mini range cube. I built a table with composite deck material that is bolted to a portable workbench.
For around two years 197 has been my best with the Revere. I’ve scored it several times. All of those were with a Sightron 36x.

Recently I decided to switch my Sightron 24x to the rifle and put the 36x on my S200. I also had a thought I wanted to try. The barrel shroud moves a little when moving the rifle. So I bought a threaded adapter for the barrel, removed the shroud and installed that. That is how i shot it today.

Something else I added since all my previous best scores is a MDT Send It. I think this little tool really helped me.

My first 200

I got out in the dark and did some testing with my S200. I found it likes FX 10.3’s more than Air Arms 10.3’s.
I was just going to shoot the rifle since it still had a brand new Huma reg. But it was shooting the FX really well, so I had to give it a go. I didn’t pay attention to my shot count and I was off reg at the end. A day to have time to shoot is better than a day you don’t.

Let a few fly from the Epic 2 @ 100yr this morning. 40gr apolo slugs, reg @ 165. I am pretty happy with the bottom groups.

I'm sure you'd clear the 30YC target with that rifle no problem.

Thanks, it’s been a lot of work.

Good to see that you have more time to shoot (relax) and making the most of it .

Sounds like what you’re saying is we need a challenge lol.
