200m with a 12ft/lbs .177 HW100?

[Alexander91]

Oh do keep up!

In summary, not exactly brilliant, but in either .22 or .177 given a bit of practise and skill you can group inside a sheet of A4 in calm conditions... and yes I've done it... many times.

put it this way.... dear all non believers ask yourself this would you let someone shoot you in the bare a** cheek at 200 yds?

yours sincerely

Just got back into target shooting after a 4 year break. I did some long range with .177 at 100yds using my EV2/Leup comp series and my Zenith/Leup comp series. I could consistently get sub 60 mil groups, and one some occasions get sub 45mm groups, my best group was 32mm CTC with the EV2 all 5 shot groups. I take my hat to this lady as I know how difficult it is to set up, just get out there and have a go, I know I will be doing again.

All the best. Neil.

great shooting this is not imposable its just great skill cant understand why people doubt it probally do 250 meters if aimed high enough as for the cans are more like paper today not like years ago bazz41

[Lksopener]

Brilliant shooting cubbleycat.

Really impressive.

In one word - Brilliant!

They are some great shots and from a verified source!!

Miss Cat should be the envy of us all (maybe thats why some seem to think it's fake/illegal!)

More of us should try to push our skills. BUT never on live quarry!! For that I'll never take a shot past 40yards.

completely agree, all you have to do is aim higher and higher until you hit, and packing the rear scope ring on the base will easily make further distances capable within the reticle. just make sure you add the packing in the centre so that the scope is central other wise it causes havok.

we're only up to mid 100-150 yards but thats with a .22, don't accuse people of it being fake until you have proof.

I reckon if i was on a high enough platform i could throw a stone 200 yds........aslong as the platform was 200 yds high.

but would'nt that be "dropping" and not throwing

[Moggsie]

Extremely impressed! I was dubious to start but there's no arguing the fact that this lady is a great shot and a really intuitive hobbyist.

Good effort.

I just want to remind everyone of the "Air gun safety rule : Always make sure there are no potential threats of life or property BEHIND you target as an airgun pellets can travel several hundred yards"

You own dam safety info tell you its possible, so why all the messing around?

You think the safety guys lie? you think the pellets just stop at a certain range?

The gun math is easy with a 177 4-5 grain pellet @770fps about 3 feet over target (7 or 8 degrees)... Look I can go and plot this out for you on a ballistics calculator if you like. You can hit 200 yards easy, if its an aerodynamic pellet it may also carry the required inertia to pop a hole in a tin can.

Now if there was any wind that would take some skill and even getting the right angle is skill, but once you are ZERO's at 200 yards ... meh we could all do it.

I woman was killed in a famous case in america when someone shot a handgun into the air at a party at about 60degrees, the bullet went several miles and hit her upside the head and killed her, the ballistics guys were confused at first because it looked like she had been shot from a tall building, but it was just the bullet on its way back down.

this has happened loads of times and they don't prosecute.
a few weeks ago a boy in miami was killed by a shot like this.
and about a month ago an armish women was killed like this whilst sitting up front with her husband on a cart.

and many many more.
they tried to do it on mythbusters but couldn't

If remember correctly what Mythbuster's attempted was firing vertical and testing to see if the bullet's free falling back to earth had enough energy to kill, they concluded that in that situation the bullet's did not have enough energy to kill.

But with people being killed by "falling bullets" as you stated, they investigated further and concluded on those situation the bullets would not have been fired virtical (resulting in the bullets free falling back down to earth) but at an high angle, resulting in the bullet retaining enough energy to kill

Or something like that, long time since i watched that episode , all ways like watching them when they are shooting with or at stuff

[Gapjohn]

Thanks guys, I am nothing special when it comes to shooting, just persistent LOL. I am always trying out new things to shoot, mainly targets and for fun, I am not into competitions myself!

Here are a few videos of mine (PS dont call the cops its all legal stuff ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKkCGIaGLo8
