Come on forum members, theres got to be somebody with a opinion.
Hi All,
I am the only one at my club who bench rest shoots at paper targets up to 60 yards distance, i shoot mpr and wolf in 1.77 and achieve very good groups with them but would like to get better. So my question is are there better rifles out there. Tried a ev2 mark 3 this morning with all the bells and whistles fitted but not as good as my mpr. would appreciate members input on this thread.

RAW TM1000 would be my next choice, you already have two great guns.
All the best

A well performing MPR is probably going to be as good as any! I would think it would more hinge on the pellets. I would be tempted to stick with the MPR and increase it's weight. Unless that takes you into a different class of course!
What sort of groups are you getting?
Do you have several wind flags on your range?
I am interested because I shoot HFT but want to do some distance stuff. I have 50 yds and 100 yds at the club.
My s400 is sensitive to where I place the front bean bag, is your MPR?
Try a air arms pro target if you can they are great
I was out at my local range this morning, shooting off a front rest at 70mts.
I was using my HW100S, and my Airwolf. Both rifles were consistently putting in less than 1" groups. I think any variation was more down to my shooting rather than the rifles ( I was shooting between heartbeats on 32x mag)
There was no wind at all, but I don't think you would do much better than that will any air rifle, unless shooting off a full bench rest.
Is there such a thing as owning too many guns?
Hi All,
Best group 3/4 inch at 60 yards with no wind (mpr), wolf at same range slightly more.
Yes flags at several distances.
I use a metal front rest, this makes no difference to my mpr wherever i rest it.

I shoot long range with my daystate Panther and HW1OOkt both in .177 and have shot under 5p sized groups at 55y , the longest range target board at my local range . I shoot off a caldwell rock front rest and a bald eagle sand filled rear bag . Getting the right pellet is a must at longer ranges as well as scope set up ie not canted at all , but the biggest factor shooting long range outdoors is the wind . Me and a a mate used to meet up last summer and shoot targets with 45mm kill zones at 8Om and hit them quite regular on a still day . There are a few lads off here ive chatted to that can do much better than that .22rf cases at 1OOm that kind of stuff Nice to see the long range target shooting section getting some use again as I think Its died off a bit lately ATB Mike
A few nice rifles
my most accurate rifle to date would be the ar20, I havn't measured the groups but a 10shot group inside a thumbnail @60yds in a prone position shooting 10xmag.I can't remember if I set the focus to 60yds or if it were still on my usual 25yd hft setting.
Keep em coming lads.
Hi, maybe i missed somewere but which pellet you use?
I got two rifles one of them Walther LG300 wich can make groups at 50m around 1,5 cm with JSB express, FT position, but a small breeze can increase it dramatically, but with JSB heavy can be less the 2,5 cm even with a small breeze.
The same with my HW77k. With crossman premium light the accuracy is very good (around 2 cm at 50m), but in a small breeze increasing up to 5-8 cm.
With JSB Heavy it is much better groups i can have.
Sorry for metric units, and for my english
