Did some long range at the weekend on the 100yd range at Dowry Hill.
I put the board at 100yds exactly, and once I was sighted in I shot a 20 shot group of 1.8 inches centre to centre. I was shooting with a friend and fellow club member who witnessed the group and measured it.
I shot off the knee (standard FT sitting position)with little or no wind to speak of. It was done with my EV2 and Nikko combo running at 770fps.
Was going to post this on the Long range thread the guy from Oz started, but can't seem to find it.
I reckon in the right conditions and bench rested, this could be reduced somewhat. Anyone else had a go?
Will take a pic of the group and post it up on this thread later tonight.

hi user name is Yrrah
This group was shot at 100yds as stated above. The pellets were Daystate 4.51s straight out of the tin.
The outer yellow circle is 40mm, the same size as a standard FT target.
Nice shooting did you say Sitting?
Whatever superb example of what can be done!!
As you say imagine practice and benchrest!
SIHFT Winners 2011 - 2012 - 2013 - AND 2014....2015..2016...oh look back at green...running out of colours! Ha!
Thanks mate. I am sure that on a very calm day and benchrested, I could keep them all in the 40mm disc.
Impressive shooting, and with 20 shots, truly representative !
Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.
Sniper-wolf, that's excellent shooting mate. I would you to see what groups you get bench rested as well as to try it out to 150 yards.
Nice shooting Mr Wolf. It's amazing what can be done with so little power. I noticed that the pellets still appear to be entering properly nose first so must be in stable flight, with the benefit of a spirit level and a bench rest who knows what's possible.
I have a spread of no more than 7fps over 50 shots.
at our club range of 50 yards a chap named lou moore as reaptedly shot the edge of a playing card using a HW 45 .22 cal pistol open sites , now thats impressive
the picture of the target card is very encouraging
had to bring this back up as this is amazing for three reasons 1 its a first attempt i believe and its amazingly accurate at that, 2 OFF THE KNEE and 3 it was done with a sub 12ftlbs rifle .....
well if i could shoot this well all the time i would take up the sport seriously, very well done man and please up date when you have done some more shooting.
If i didnt have a Falcon i would have a Rapid
