RAW dominates 100m match in the Netherlands

[100m airgun]

The 100m match that was organised today in The Netherlands was dominated by shooters with Rapid Air Weapons equipment in the pelletclass. In the solidclass custom build weapons (KSS) won.

Here some pics and the results.

Do they do a comp for sub 12fpe guns at this range or are they all .25/.30 cals with 44+grn pellets? That would make interesting reading as it would be a better guide to what a lot of us shoot.

I see by the photos that all the airguns are connected to large air supplies. That suggests heavy air use.
So what power output are you using for the 0.30 pellets, it would, no doubt be in our FAC area which there is little or no comps here in the UK.

We have 2 different 100m competitions in The Netherlands. But on both of them +12 fpe guns are used. Minimum energy used is around 30fpe.

Indeed they are connected to large external air supplies. For two reasons:
1. Heavy air use (as you mentioned). The guns that are used can produce 5-30 usable 100m target shots on the own supply.
2. More consistency in velocity of the projectile (although some guns are internally regulated)

Here some results from another 100m competition. As you can see, in this one guns are used with calibers that are being used in the UK on -12 fpe guns. In our competion these guns (for instance BSA) will produce app. 30fpe.

What a pity there is nothing like this in the UK, I would love to try it with my FX Impact .25 fac.
