I printed the NUAH target a while ago, but I had been waiting for a really calm day to actually take an attempt at getting in (ink isn't cheap you know!) . Well, today was certainly dreary, but the wind was virtually non existent so I decided to go for it.
Rifle: T06 RWS 54 .22
Scope: UTG True Hunter 4-16 (Zeroed at 50, shot at 16x zoom)
Ammo: JSB 15.89 (Normally shoot 18.13's but my rifle really liked this tin)
Position: Seated with front bag only
Weather: 68 degrees with overcast. Wind <7mph NE.
Not my greatest grouping ever, I thought the first shot was high so the following four came in low. Still proud to have done it with a springer

Taped to a shoebox and hung at 100 yards by a vine. Confirmed by Google Maps and laser range finder.

Here's the view from 100

My gun, range finder, and the JSB's used

And last but not least, a useful reticle trajectory print out for my rifle @ 16x zoom with JSB 15.89's @ 800 fps.

Good shooting Rick, i would never even attempt it with my springer
-
Thanks a lot Norm, don't need to tell me twice! :D
Much appreciated Tommy, if I had that sweet FX Boss of yours shooting sub MOA at 100 yds, I'd never consider using a springer passed 65.

Great Job, I telling you the springer guys going 100 are kick'en A shoots. I'm very impressed. Joe

Nice shooting with your 54 Rick. 8)
-
Joe and Robert I have to say the 54's sled action takes out a ton of the difficulty. You just pull it in as tight as you can, (because 100% strength is easier to repeat consistently than anything less) squeeze smooth, and follow through like a PB.

Way to go Rick. Nice shooting.

Thanks Marty! Can't wait till my RAW shows up. I was at a funeral last week and a couple of my old friends out in Leesburg said they would be down to do some fun shoots in the near future.
