Title: stoeger x-5 killed a 7up can at 30 yards today
Post by: robert w on June 09, 2013, 07:15:38 PM
i stuck a rod in the ground at 30 yards then stuck a 7 up can on it . i shot it 3 times with my x5 using cphps . its streachin it open sights with my bad eyes . not a bad group at that range and its breaking in nice. trigger is gettin smoother and a little lighter too. feels like about 3-3.5 pounds pull. not a lot of creep either. if it keeps shootin like this its a keeper . i need to scope it with a light weight scope .next thing in its future. photos show in on 1 side and out the other

Good shooting.

Best I can get across my backyard is 70 feet.  would be sweet to have a 90 foot distance to set my scope.
