So.....what did you shoot today?

[Matchstickshooter]

 Ended up the front and rear sights were questionable on the Shanghai Model 62 .
Everything but Gamo Match were shooting left, from across the room, and the Gamo Match which were nearly stacking.
This with the rear sight centered.
 Stretched it out to about 10 yards and they all shoot left.
   Removed the sights and scoped it and doing much better, but still favors the Gamo Match .22

Shot my ‘Cuda Max today.

Was a wee bit windy today!  Even down under the river bank the gusts were still strong.  I shot the .22 Crosman Fire and the .177 ProwlFire hybrid at ranges out to 60 yards with surprising accuracy.  I shot individual blossoms off a wild Azalea at 50 yards with both guns despite the wind.

Wish I shot this well during hunting season.

Raining so I was shooting my CO2 pistols in the basement. Used to be I couldn't do that since my dog was terrified of the report. light as it is. I used to have to wait until she was outside so I could target shoot inside. Living in town, shooting in the yard is a no-no. But in the last 6 months she has gone totally deaf so not I can shoot anytime downstairs. I would prefer that she still have that acute hearing she once had, and I would only shoot while she was outside. We got her from a shelter 7 years ago and should she was fairly young then. But our vet, based on xrays of her spine put her at older than we thought.

The wind still blew in some gremlins while I was trying yet again to check the scope settings on the 880 at 50’ and 66’, but it was way less windy than most of the last week+ has been. After finishing that I got the Blue Streak out. It needed the peep sight adjusted.

Distance was kept at 33’ for now. Sure enough, in using a front bag and having less wind today, it was clear the windage needed to be adjusted right and the elevation adjusted up. I used 3 pumps to keep power level consistent, except on the first shot; on that one the third pump was pretty hard to do, making me suddenly remember that it was actually the FIFTH pump—I had pumped twice before putting the gun away on Monday.

Just for fun, I ended the session by taking it off the bag and plinking while sitting on the driveway, left arm supported on bent left knee. A few shots at spinners and a few at a soup can hung face-forward. The can now has some nice rattles inside it from the pellets that holed the face but not the backside. They’ll add sound effects in the next session.

Avator was right:  the more I shoot this gun the more I like it. The other day I knew the trigger was “light enough.” Today I realized it feels clean, smooth, AND light. The gun overall just feels good to hold, with no fussing to position it.

Thursday is LGR day after work.  They called me a "regular" and gave me the end stall (#10).
Red Wagon of toys and testing.
I started with the SPA800r project with the modified wood stock and gargantuan UTG 1x30 optic which sorta works with the Fatboy Wood grips width. The 3moa dot is HUGE and a figure 8 on the lowest setting for me  okay more like a snowman.  Using the snowman's belly I was able to do surprisingly decent 10M groups with my wrists resting on a bag.  The eye relief was indeed unlimited and without parallax.  Due to the SNowman dot and magazine conflicts I probably will not use the UTG and most likely won't be able to do a red dot.
Next was the AEA 303 Challenger with the 40to1 NOE 63gr BTHP cast slugs.  At the wall (24M) my groups were no better than the backyard at 15M so....I will order some NSA 303x61.5grHP as the gun loved the 303x47.2s, but I'm going to put the 70mm hammer spring and shim back in and go with the 3750 to 4000psi fill fire breathing 105+fpe tune.  Ninja squirrels beware!
Next was the Notos with the NOE217RF20 casts at 99.9 pure.  The groups were acceptable for hunting and plinking, but the Apollo 18s grouped better and one ragged hole at 10M.  Based on the price of Apollos it might be hard to convince myself to keep casting pellets.  Might explore the NOE218x25 Slug for the Notos and SPA800r.
Lastly was the scope busting jumper.  The LOP is now near perfect and felt like my groups were much better.  Apollo 18s at 10M Bag just past the trigger guard.

My Woods Walker, I put down 4 pesky pests with it right before dark.

Weatherman says windy with 20 mph gusts today so it may be another not so good day for shooting. I'll have to wait and see. The new North Range does have wind breaks on all sides so it might be doable.

The https://noebulletmolds.com/site/product-category/bullet-moulds/224/218-25-rf-d6/ shoots slow but accurate out of my Notos, and Nicks Chaser Pistol even.

[Hoosier Daddy]

Brought out the Mendoza Sisters.
RM 200 and RM 600.
They are kinda fond to me for traveling to Mexico annually.
Darn nice shooters once you get accustomed to the double trigger.. and easy on the eyes.
Kind of amazing in the size difference between the two side by side
 One is a senora and the other a senorita.
Both are stamped with an "R"

I sure hope the weatherman knows what he's talking about...
He says it will be sunny and 79 today with a max if 5mph wind.
I plan to give that new target range a workout. So far Betty Lou is feeling better today so she might even join me.
Heck, we might even take a peek in the beer fridge.

Got my brand new Beeman QB Chief 2+ out for its first real testing. I'd gotten it on Tuesday, but weather and work kept me from doing anything but some break in testing in my barn, with all of 7M of range.

Put a cheap CVlive 3-9x40AO scope on it. Had a little trouble getting it zeroed, but that was because, 1. the hi-viz splatterburst targets weren't splatter-bursting and 2. I kept going through the same hole at 30m so I kept thinking I'd missed! But yes, I was stacking pellets at 30m once I'd zeroed it in. Then went through about a 120 pellets just plinking away at my target range. Was touching up my targets with some red paint after I'd finished when I noticed one of my shots had lodged a crosman dome INTO the steel CO2 cartridge! For a $220 airgun, I'm quite happy with that.

[Blowpipe Sam]

I shot spinners at 25 yards with my C2100.  Just a few minutes relaxing after a busy day.  I only shot a dozen pellets and hit what I was shooting at.  What a difference from my first couple of years with this gun!  Now that it is accurate it's going to get a lot more use.

[sekiar]

I mounted a Williams peep sight on my Cometa 220 in .177 caliber and had to adjust the sight to it's max up position to be sighted in at 12 yards.  So if I shoot much farther I'll have to aim higher and so for now it will be my 10 to 15 yard fun gun.  Charles

 I dialed in my GK1 for 25,39 gr Dead Center pellets. Then after installing a TKO Weaver 3D printed breach, on one of my 362's dialed that scope in and plinked for some time, amazed at how much I liked the 3D breach vs metal ones in many ways. Main thing was I kept drilling out the bull

[avator]

Betty Lou and I shot for several hour yesterday after working on the North Range shooting lean to. We were ripping mini Bud Light beer cans off the 3" drywall screws at 25 yds. We had a great time.

[Hoosier Daddy]

I dug out a blast from the past... my Crosman Genisis NP.
 With it's CDT trigger and shroud I had forgotten what a great "springer" this is.
Just a solid "thud" and accurate at 30y as anyone could expect from a sub $200 gun.

I wonder if my Benjamin Genesis still works, was a sweet long range shooter for a break barrel

After the 347,  it was time to get my pistol fix on.

The Daisy pistola's are great for some backyard shooting. Quiet, accurate and essy to pump.

777 & 717....will bring out the 747 next time and others that have been modified
