Had some pretty rare air right at dusk today. And I finally have a target set up at 150 plus, 155 to be exact.

The 177 red wolf was right there. So I shot a 10 shot group walked out and back then shot a five shot group. It’s dropping a bit over 2 feet from POA

I was quite pleased with the results. Shooting Crossman premier heavies, above the speed of sound.

That's very impressive. A friend uses slugs in .177 and we had a little shootoff at 100 yards, shooting pine cones at 100 yards. I was using the Uragan in .30 cal, shooting 44 grain pellets and he had the Wolf taming Neilsen slugs.

We ran the pinecones, him shooting and nailing one and me the next. The effortlessness of the wolf to stretch to 100 consistently and accurately was darn impressive. The .30 hit a little harder, but those .177 slugs didn't slow down much from their initial velocity at 300 feet.

You know the true value to this is not that the gun shoots that well at 200 yards but it’s an indicator of what it’s capable of at more realistic distances. That’s really the only reason I shoot long range for the most part but it is nice to be able to impress yourself. I say yourself because truth of the matter at least in my house and my group of friends very few care. LOL Slugs have turned the air gun game all around haven’t they. Took me a long time to get friendly with them but with some help from others on the form I finally did.

You are exactly right 👍 I shoot long range just to see for myself that it is able to do so and it is a lot of fun and I enjoy it very much 😃

100 yards is MOA or even sub-MOA most of the time 😃

Slugs has really changed the long range game 🎯😃
