.22 Altaros ATP Kings showing promise in the 700mm Panthera.

I have tested a large sample of different slugs in my 22 Panthera 700 mm. As previously reported, it will consistently shoot sub moa at approx 90 yards using the ZAN 30.5 and H&N 34 Gr heavy slugs to date - its favorites.

I received some 40 Gr Altaros slugs from Tony at Talon Tunes this morning. It is bitter cold outside with a strong north wind so I tested two ten shot groups inside a few minutes ago. This combination is showing some real promise. I look forward to testing it at longer ranges outdoors when conditions and time permit.

The range was 18 yards, 10 shot groups, with MOA = approx .18"

Fantastic groups there using Altaros slugs thru your Panthera, lots of power to push those 40gr @ 960-ish!

True, but they are most accurate at about 900 fps. Enjoy!

True about Altaros speed! He could definitely tune down and get more shots.....I am impressed with how much POWER is on tap! Also surprised about the accuracy at those speeds as no one else has gotten accuracy at high speeds.

I see. My question would be “but why”? Plus with the Panthera at that power you’d be lucky to get 15 shots on a 250 bar fill.
Aren’t those groups at 18 yards? Let’s wait until 100 before we say they are accurate at 960.
