Stretching The Legs of My HW77K Laminated

[cslinger]

So I rarely get a chance to get the air guns out past 20 yards and frankly much past 35-40 my skill level starts to drop off like a barrel down Niagra Falls with most non PCP air guns. Today, however, I took a me day and went out to the range and stretched out my 97K and didn't do too badly. Now like any good fish story one must have at least a couple of excuses for the one that got away so here are mine.

-The sun was directly in front of me starting out. That was PITA
-A had a dude, nice guy, right next to me shooting a short barreled .450 Bushmaster with God's own muzzle brake. That was a weee bit distracting.

So there are my excuses. The wind was fairly calm with the occasional left to right gust but nothing too difficult and the weather was PERFECT.


Range was approximately 55 yards


So on to the shooting. Range was somewhere between 50-60 yards. I am calling it 55 yards.
Ironically my first shots of the day, with the sun in my eyes ended up being my best group.


Next group I opened up. This is all me.


I am getting back in control


I finish fairly strong (for me)


All in all great fun and I ran a bunch of .22lr today as well. Its rare I get to spend a couple hours at the range without being rushed so today was very nice.

As always, take care and shoot safe,
Chris

The reason for the low groups is I didn’t want to dork with my zero and my scope is a simple cross hair with no range estimating/mil dots etc. so I was dropping them a little low.
