I had a short window this morning to shoot two EBR cards at 100Y. Stat's are on them. I shot this with my custom Thomas HPX 22 cal named SURELY. 25.4gr at 925 fps. I used a Edgewood rear bag which was under the bag rider instead of the green Triad tactical rear bag in the photo and the front rest is a Farley joystick rest. The table is a plastic WorkX work bench which flexes a lot. I don't have a steady bench at the moment.
I shot the 228 card first, the 239 next. I've shot who knows how many cards maybe 40-50??? the last couple years, most with the 25 cal FX Impact I used to own, a AAA Evol in 30 cal, and a AGT Vulcan 2 30 cal, The highest I've shot out of those guns was a 225 but normal was low 200's. I shot 4 cards earlier this week but it was windy and switchy and only got low to mid 200's.
Last October was my highest previous score at 229 with Mike N's personal Thomas HPX, not with my SURELY. So I finally beat my highest score so far which was awesome!
Oops, apparently I'm still in April time, lol. Month 5 darnit, Steve!
Here's a experiment I tried just after I shot the last card. These shots on the cardboard were all the reject pellets I had out of a tin consisting of funky skirts and .5 gr difference in weight, as well as the heads that were the largest and the smallest. The highest one opened the vertical up to just over an inch but there's a mess of them under an inch.
