Title: A couple of PCP's at 50 yards!!!
Post by: kevinbrian on September 09, 2012, 07:40:56 PM
First up my Daystate Huntsman XL 177 cal. Using Air Arms 8.4 grain pellets at 50 yards.  I am so proud of this little gun. Could it be called a Carbine of sorts???? I guess it could, but MAN what a shooter:

 Next up is a 50 yard group of Crosman Premier Heavies from the Huntsman. Wow! Check this out:

  Next up is JSB Exact Heavies (10.1 grain?). Not AS hot, but still okay. A few too many fliers though:

 And last but not least, my project rifle for the last few weeks. Getting it tweaked, adding a new factory shroud, stripping the thumbhole stock and Tru-Oiling it, has brought this rifle back up to the front. I was amazed at this 9 shot (full magazine of 18.1 gr Exacts) group at 50 yards!!!  My jaw dropped when the ninth shot was fired:

Looking good there!
Much obliged. Just having fun. About to go outside and try the Huntsman at 100 yards while the wind has layed. I hope I'm awed.  But, I'll be satisfied with this little rifle no matter how it performs at 100 yards. I mean...that's stretching it for a 177 cal it seems! Thanks for your reply. kevin

Thanks fellows. Shooting paper with my three PCP's  is about all there is to do around here sometimes. But I love doing it. And I love talking about it, and showing it, and looking at other's groups, and buying more air rifle's, and thinking about buying more air rifles, etc etc I just love airguns. Plain and simple. There's just something........different about them that makes a body want to go out and start perforating stuff.!!! LOL  Thanks for the great replies!!!

Excellent shooting with those great guns!  Groups covered with a dime at 50yds is probably the best anyone or any gun can do.  Doesn't get better than that.
