0.8 inch group at 134 yards!!

[nightstalker000]

i have been very happy today as my airwolf mvt has managed a sub inch groups shooting out to 134 yards (target shooting).

the jsb exact seem to love my barrel and the mvt system keeps the mv at 950 fps tight to allow accurate range / trajectory holdover with milldot rect.

stopped using the pellet lube as this messed up the crono.

Hi buddy that is some serious shooting!

where you using the jsb exact heavies? or just the normal 16gr jsb's? i swear by aa fields/jsb exacts.

Get the batch number of the tin and buy as many as you can afford. Re-mortgage the house. You might never get a batch that good again!!

[nightstalker000]

they are 15.9grain ones.

5.52 mill skirt.

shoot just a bit better than the tin of 5.51 jsb and aa fields i brought last week.
1.2 inch group with the aa fields with pellet lube but the lube messed up the crono!

i think the barrell is a good one as the engineer at daystate said i have got a good one as he fired it in front of me and did a tidy group at 50 yards. much better than i could do that day!

gonna try the 18.1 grain heavys in a few weeks when i can get hold of them. quite hard to get hold of i am finding.

don't think its down to batch so much as different batches have all produced very good results.

mmmmm

yes well



plus how many shots in a group did you do

you said in this bit
shoot just a bit better than the tin of 5.51 jsb and aa fields i brought last week.
1.2 inch group with the aa fields

when you say shot a bit better
if its nearly 3x as far then it could open the group up to 3.6" if not more
every time I have used JSB or AA at that sort of speed I have found that the skirts just can't take the power
even tried them with a 24" parogon barrel witch Daystate put on my FAc ranger and the only pellets that hold there shape is Bis mags

will add been trying to get hold of some 18g AA but no joy yet

Happy shooting, whatever the range.

i tried the 18grain jsb the other day got them from intershoot and they are quite good but not as good as the 15.9 jsb for my shooting and my setup.

i find both types are ok and the skirts are ok even at a few more ft/lbs. maybe its just my barrell or the way the airwolf works. i went to the factory a couple of months ago becuase i have been having a bad crossover problem and the engineer admitted that i had a very good barrel and barrel quality can be different from barrel to barrel. I suppose its liek pellets really.

i find it hard to decided on the 18 grain or the 16 grain jsbs. both shoot well but my feeling is that the 16 grain ones shoot more accuratly at all ranges and retain about 9 ft/lb out to 160 yards. the 18 grains 1 or 2 ft/lb more at long range. but i like the idea that the 16 grains loose power fast after 130 150 yards. both seem to be effceted by the wind and the 18 grain only a little better. b magnums are rubbish compaired with both the jsb with my setup.

i'm going to stick with the 16 grain becuase i would rather have accurracy over anything else. if it gets windys i think i wil just shoot out to 50 yards max.

happy shooting verminator

curious figure 134 yards? why not 130 or 140,or is 134 yards how long your field is ?

[nightvision]

do you not mean 134 feet mate, that would make it about 45 yards.....
