Great shot… judging distance at night with or without the red lights is hard. Even with the NV I use a red light mounted on the stock. Kinda cycling in between the two helps but I still miss sometime
OUSTANDING! How are you liking the Karma EQKarma EQ .30
52gr Patriot Javelin
935fps
Finally got a chance to do some squirreling with the new girl.. I’ve got a 75y zero on it now so that’s the hold under, plus a little windage.
Went in behind one ear and out the other.View attachment 586431

This one is thicker and heavier than my last one. At 60yds, it only spins 2 revolutions with a hit on the small side with th a 25gr pellet. My last one worked great with .22cal/18gr pellets and spun like a top but was bending with the .25cal/25gr.I have several and they do not handle .22 rimfire. If I shoot them with 25 grain redesigns they bend up.
Some parts of these are plastic so they might not survive a direct hit, but maybe some plywood would enough ( or the blue material you're using in your prototype), otherwise the cost is less then $6 each. May need to add a brick to the base to make sure the wind doesn't knock them over.Here’s idea 1. I’ll have to compute the actual cost but it’s not super cheap but is completely flat and will store away nicely.
The answer to your question is what is winning at the competitions with pro shooters. Matt Dubber has been shooting the DRS Pro for the last couple of years, and Noor won RMAC with the Red Panda this year.100 yd benchrest would be my priority.![]()
I was wondering the same thing ? So I shot a baseball sized potato at 30 yards, it popped just like when I hit one with a hollow point.I wonder if the flat meplat would tear up the wound channel like a wadcutter. Has any one tested these in something like clay or ballistic gel?

This is the 1st 10 shot group at 50 yards from my DRS Classic 22 700.

I have it set up shooting the H&N 34gr Heavy slugs at 975fps. I did not change any settings to shoot the Ace 40.1gr. slugs, they were going 937 fps.
After 5 sight in shots this is the 1st 100 yard group in gusty 12+ mph wind. I held .2 mil to the left for wind.

#7 was shooter.
The hole in the target is ⅞ of an inch.
Hopefully Airmarksman comes out with a high BC Boat Tail Hollow Point for hunting.
I am going to adjust my rifle to shoot them a little faster.
So far I really like the Airmarksman Ace slugs.
They easily fit in the Orion the Iguana Hunter magazines for the DRS.
