Ultrastu Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 Sub 12 .177 id say 80 yds do it in 3 shots . And you have 3 previous shots to work out your hold /mildot . Do that and you get a chocky bar.. 22 try 70 yds same rules . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultrastu Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 The way i see it . Its not really much of a challenge if you put the ball at 120 yds and shoot 57 pellets before you fluke a hit . Or if you put it at 45 yds and smash it first time . The range has to be the very far limit of the cal at that energy . So what your left with is skill and ability to shoot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like to add, didnt know you could get chalk balls, Im going to film this when I get some at the driving range 😂😂😂👍 Edited January 12, 2020 by strimmer_13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgy Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) 200 yards, I know you can hit them at 150. Get it on video too. 200 yards 183m in Strelock using sub12 jsb 10.34 gr is 60mils or 12meters of holdover. Bit less for your 30m zero. Using 8.4gr at your zero 200 yards183m is 37.52 mils or 9.9 meters. 1ftlb retained energy. Off hand at 75 yards as per the airgun depot challenge.

washerboy Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 60 yards open sights.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) In .22 using JSB exacts it's only 49.45 mils of elevation at 200 yards. Only 9.05m so less total elevation over distance. Retained energy 2ftlb, if we need 3ftlb for a kill 163meters is the limit. Luckily your range finder should give you a aim point at 10meters high 😂😂 So what's it going to be Arron ? A second focal plane zoomed out might give you the holdover. Edited January 12, 2020 by figgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaz25 Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Try 50 yards with a point .25 it will look like your aiming for the moon but what a shot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgy Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) You don't have one 😲 Cheapo phone zoom lens, can get all the footage especially with a little phone tripod. Edited January 13, 2020 by figgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbie to this Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) Or prop the phone near the target and video it from the target end. Kind of gives an incentive not to miss.
