08shooter Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 i have my doubt of it being 200 metres i had a gun the same as his and with the air arms /jsb flight time id say that its more like 100 metres.low mag scope makes it look further away.

Muddy Funker Posted November 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Haha! What sort of range can you get from FAC rated rifles? I'm not talking about hunting, just hitting a target like a can ect. As for the broken glass in the country, yeah he's a numbnut for that!

deadeye ive Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 I,m running the same rifle at 35 ft lbs (975 FPS) .........I'm with the rest of the chaps by saying 100m range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the broken glass in the country, yeah he's a numbnut for that! well considering he is using 16g pellets I would suggest that even if he was using an fac rated gun 30lb would be about the max and at 100 yards pellet drop would be about 12" and he would be starting to lose inertia rapidly, now he is NOT elevating his gun and he does not seem to be shooting down hill, so I would suggest that if he is shooting "level" then his pellet would be on the ground long before 200 metre's, if his gun is a 12lber then he would have dropped four feet from level @ 100 yards I could not even imagine the height he would have to give the shot for 200 yards, anyway the pellet would have lost stability and flight due to loss of inertia long before. cheers KW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just getting back into air rifle shooting after quite a break and it's a toss up between the 410 or ultra multi, nightmare decision as i like both.

SAVAGE HMR Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 I'm quite impressed to say the least but I think he's got a bit more than the 12ft lbs we're stuck with over here without a F.A.C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P03 Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 Judging by the amount of recoil he's getting I would say he's probably running well over 30lbs ft.... but 200 yds??..........it ain't dog and it ain't goat.....must be bull.

bunnybasher07 Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 I have tryed shooting at targets with my 12ftp scorpion at around 100yds and i am actually using the bottom of the scope (below the mildots) which is like 4-5 feet above the target !! and they guys are right ^^^ no way its 12 ftp and i would say its an F.A.C at about 30 ftp GM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
