This gotta beat them all- 500yards Big bore airgun shoot

[flims]

here's the papa of long range airgun shooters..

interestingly enough they have also founded and organization for long range airgun shooting - 'LASSO'

Well this bloke must use a pump to fill his gun

What power are they running!!?

there was nothing written on specs but with those kind of bullets(630grain) will get you to about 615ft/lbs the guys have also been to Africa with them, im waiting for the video to come out and get my hands on it. if its good as big bore airgun shooting 1, then it must be cool

Very impressive, must be quite long flight time. MV @ 200m/s gives around 3 seconds of flight before hitting the target. I guess you`ll need a really heavy bullet to get any accuracy.


Chroned my Career Infinity .25 yesterday

I need heavier bullets!!!

Im thinking around 70 - 80 grains to get the velocity down to 240ich that would also get energy up to around 110 ft-lbs.

Should be good for long range

110J ~ 80ft-lbs

finally you have it! so now we are in 2 who have it here. im using 31.2grain barracuda from mine set at 925ft/s average.
1)924 1)920
2)925 2)926
3)931 3)928
4)939 4)937
5)936 5)936
6)939 6)937
7)934 7)935
8)927 8)928
9)927 9)923
10) 917 10)915
11)913 11)909
12)905 12)903
in both instances Extreme spread is 34ft/s.
standard Deviation 11.68ft/s
that rifle is a hammer out to 170yards. i prefer the 31grn barracuda than the 37grain pellet as the other needs more elevational travel to get out at those ranges and i dont have that much on my scope. My maximum is 55.5MOA but i will get another scope in MIL increments so i dont have to dial so much.
it groups well all the way out. heavier bullets will need alot of elevation and after all they will need to group as well as the barracuda's. Mine shoot 1/4-1/2" ctc at 50. best group 1.2" at 140yards and 4" at 170yards. doesn't take more than 2sec to get to 170yards!
send in a report when you finished playing with it.
