H&N Hornets at 22 grain did the trick. Accuracy has never been an issue while plinking and wasn’t when it needed to count. I haven’t gone past 40 yds with plinking and don’t really have the need to as the spotlight I’m using give me visibility to MAYBE 40 yds. Now that I’ve found the right...

Switched to the H&N hornet in 22 grain, no chrono but can notice a speed difference from the JSBs. Accuracy hasn’t been an issue and with the guidance on where to place a shot with my caliber, I found success with 1 well placed shot in the 20-25 yard range.

Subjective as in saying “make sure you have good shot placement” isn’t really a helpful term. Describing the location that is considered good shot placement is helpful and not subjective…so LDP’s post helped out with that.

Oh and “good shot placement” that’s a subjective term.. in your opinion what is the ideal location? T-box, behind an ear, through an eye, back of head, etc. thanks!

Mine is pretty accurate out to about 35-40 yds. I haven’t tried beyond that. I can consistently hit my little spinners in the 20-30 yard range. That area is generally where I’ll look to get possums/coons. I’ll try some different pellets. Any recommendations?

Thanks, definitely not a 90 maybe more of a 60-75. Shooting from 15 ft out a garage loft window. Last night’s bait was marshmallow. I had time to a well placed shot and these things move so slow I can see them travel. I hit where I had wanted. I’ll try some other pellets out.

I’m new to air rifles but not new to shooting/hunting however raccoons are giving me a hell of a problem. I got the Benjamin trail np xl in 25 cal at the suggestion of air gun depot and am shooting jsb exact king heavy pellets at 33gr. I’ve cleanly dropped 2 possums with vital shots but raccoons...
