160 Yard Head shots on GS's with my Uragan .25, it amazed me how accurate this gun is at long distances, I shot several at that distance with about a 5 mil hold over and 1/2 a mil left windage on my Athlon Talos 4-16x40 scope set on 10x power, my scope was zeroed at 80 yards, I was shooting JSB MKll's at 880 fps.
it was kinda like this, but smaller....

That is Really fantastic and amazing the consistency at those ranges.

Almost two years ago I popped a dragon fly at 20yds. I was surprised!

I shot 6 Ground Squirrels at that distance, I estimate I was aiming about 8-9 ft above the squirrels the JSB MKll .25 pellets worked great, all together I shot 25 Squirrels that day.
my Buddy was shooting His Prod Carbine that day, He was picking off GS's at 60-70 yards, it amazed me how well it did, it was shooting Crosman hollow points at 700 fps.

LOL, I was! It's actually better if your POA doesn't match your POI when trying for small groups. When you shots hit where you're aiming, it can visually molest your POA, making it harder to find the same POA. When your shots land away from your POA, your POA stays clearly defined making it easier to shoot smaller groups. It's along the same lines of aim small, miss small. Try it, it works.

That is super smart ... do similar when proofing accuracy potential & NOT POA /POI testing or adjusting.
