How hard can that be i thought
Well I had a go at it today at the club range and i can tell you it's f***in difficult.
Ive posted link to my best effort so far but i will get it tighter
This is really addictive stuff I must say. Oh and what you dont see are all the other larger groups I shot in the preceding hour
Equipment used:
Steyr FT .177
Meopta meostar R1 4*16*44 scope @ 16 mag
jsb exact diabolo heavy
Go on have a go at it

Oh, thats a £2.00 coin not a £1.00 lol
thats still very good man as it is if it were a 1 pound coin it would be hard to believe for some including myself
i shot a very impressive one holer yesterday very confidently [although i was surprised ] with some bismags at 40 yds maybe the width of a .25 pellet 5 shots. the surprising thing was it wasnt done with jsbs or my usual AA pellets but plain old bisleys from the tin
If i didnt have a Falcon i would have a Rapid
Hi Brody, that's quite impresive mate. Try using a lighter pellet instead of the JSB Heavies which are 10.5grain I think. Use some lighter pellets, such as JSB 4.51, 4.52 and 4.53s Also try AA field and Mosquitoes. I have just done some shorter range testing with Defiants which weigh only 7.5grain and JSB 4.53, both giving very good results at 50yds. I will try them at 100yds when I get a nice day.
Well done again mate.
Neil.
I had a go at longer range shooting today at both 70yds and 100yds.
This was purely for my experimentation at the moment to find the drops on 2 rifles. A Rapid MK2 set on 4x mag and a Ripley AR5s set on 10x both in .177 used and I aimed off using the mildots.
70yd Results
Rapid smallest group 1 3/4" in vertical plane and 3" horizontal plane.
Ripley smallest group 1" vertical and 2" horizontal
100yds
Rapid 1st attempt
Vertical 5" Horizontal 7" realised I had left parralax at 30yds
2nd attempt
Vertical 2" Horizontal 4"
Ripley Vertical 1 1/2" Horizontal 4"
Wind conditions were a slight left to right, overcast. Rifles shot from beanbag.
Will experiment again next weekend.

I aimed at the right place at the wrong time.
if the vertical component of your groups is such as you describe then you can certainly get your groups to about 1.5". the horizontal dispersion is probably due to wind but it depends how strong the wind is where you are shooting. you could either wait between shots so as to reduce that horizontal dispersion or else watch your trigger pull. i would still prefer to zero in for 100 then holding off, it will also help reduce size of groups. watch the wind mate..
