Head shot thread

[ZekeZX10]

The one on my hand I took was the 30 at 38 yd. The other 2 with the notos 1 at 10 yd, the other at 44.

What are you shooting out of the notos and fps? I tuned mine way down for backyard plinking. The 18.13 just over 400fps/ 6.6fpe and still shooting 1 hole groups (but I'm only shooting out to 20yds max).

Was shooting the 25.39 JSB @ 335fps / 6.3fpe but just not quite as tight, and some flyers. Think too slow to be stable.

Headshot (15 yards) on Sparrow slowmotion... snack time for the kitty
Notos
18.13g @ 406fps / 6.6fpe

Tuned the Notos way down since I only shoot 20 yards max in the back yard and even with 6fpe still get pass throughs, even on larger birds like the ringneck dove.

Outstanding

131 yards mouse tonight. Forgive the quality. Full zoom with a Pard through a NF scope is not great. But I hit the little sucker where I was aiming. Squeezed on his eye.

That was awesome shot!

Thanks. Shooting off a bipod with no rear support is a chore on something that small and far. I missed two last night because my scope was two clicks off. But with a quarter inch kill zone, two clicks is a big miss.

Just to show I’m not perfect here’s the last one a couple minutes ago before I go to bed. Missed first shot but went for head on second shot. Not walking all the way over there in darkness to confirm. Possibly a neck shot at worst.

no doubt, doesn't take much to miss at 100+ yards on something so small. 1 out of 3 shots on a 1/4" target still not bad. To get 3 out of 3, hell that would be shooting 1/4 MOA @ 100 yards, sad to say I'm not there yet lol

Yeah 131y in the dark, even with NV is not easy at all. To get 1/3 is wild. Excellent shooting! …….

Absolutely FANTASTIC Headshot on that tiny mouse's fuse box! Great video!

Another Headshot (15 yards) on Sparrow slowmotion... they just keep coming.
Notos
18.13g @ 406fps / 6.6fpe

For awhile they stopped coming around and I was seeing a bunch of other native birds comin around. Seems like when the sparrows start coming around, the others not so much.

Amazing what 7fpe can do when focused on such a small area, in this case a .22 I'm assuming. Awesome shot, just started shooting my Notos sub 7fpe and it's fun!
