Introductions Hello from France

[Terminatir]

Hello everyone. Presentation from France. Recreational shooter, I enjoy making my own .22 (5.51) caliber projectiles for autonomy, savings and especially the ballistics that I am discovering as I go along. I shoot in public ranges at 50 meters and in private domains from 100 to 500m with the possibility of up to 1 km. Our legislation allows it under certain conditions. Kind regards

Welcome to the HAM Community

Your air rifle and scope looks like a very nice combination. Can you share some details?

I chose an Impact M3 for my long-range shooting needs. For me, short distances of 50 to 100 m are perfect for the diabolo, and beyond that, for long distances. I plan to reach 1 km eventually, but one thing at a time. This M3 perfectly met my expectations and did not encounter any particular problems, such as leaks, regulator problems or others. I took it in hand with the upper sleeve to understand and master the cafabine and its adjustments. Subsequently, I completely replaced it with a slug platform.

It was originally a 9mm M3, but I installed a new .22 caliber barrel. For customization, I've always had a soft spot for chrome. I instinctively started polishing small pieces here and there, without knowing what the end result was. I realized it gave it an exoskeleton look, like in the Terminator movie, and so the name Terminatir rifle made sense...

700mm barrel, heavy upper barrel. I installed an AirMaksmann rail that I machined, as I found it unsightly. Tastes and colors... Falcon Endura scope with adjustable EagleVision collars, Kraford Lypt stock with homemade monopod, lower rail and Sabre tactical grip, Donny FL Shogun magazine. I made the cheek rest, hand rest and stock from beech. No woodworking skills, just the pleasure of doing it myself when possible

reclaimed beech wood. I had never done any carpentry. Dyed with Indian ink. I had to do several tests to get the right shape for the hand rest but the fixing system remains the same.

Welcome to Ham, and nice custom work on your airgun! Have you tried the new H&N precision (33gr) slugs too? What speed are shooting those at? That's pretty good for 200M! I have no idea how you'll get it to 1km, though!
I saw Matt Dubber shoot 630 yards with his .22 impact, and that was downhill!

Greetings from Ohio fellow HAMster! Looking forward to hearing about you stretching .22 to new limits!

Welcome to the HAM forum. Amazing looking rifle you have there! More details please?

I am currently at 550m in 33gr, I could use larger grains but I want to finish my experience and learning in 33gr. Once I have understood the causes and effects of the modifications, I will test heavier ones. Then I will move on to testing roundhead slugs. My friend is currently shooting at 800m with his in .22 impact m3. To do this, I must find an adjustable cold shot mount because I am at the end of the elevation of my scope. Personally, I put myself 3 to 5% below the target speed of each chosen regulation. Currently 281 to 285 m/s depending on the temperature and groupings.
