Looking pretty good for a plinker at 15m considering that was without the benefit of a scope. The 220fps sampling tips a hand to vertical stringing but it’s too few to draw a firm conclusion.

When i shoot the leshiy with 280 fps its in my house, target at 14 yards. Not loud and very acurate.

I honestly didn't realize how bad the drop was until I punched the numbers into Strelok. It's kind of weird shooting close range like this and having serious hang time before impact

Impressive! Didn't think the Impact would be consistent that low
@Bask yeah, over 275fps is when my Mutant's groups start to tighten up lol

Just tested mine again got to 280fps with jsb .25 25gr pellets. With a 700mm slug liner it grouped extremely well at 25 yards. Didnt bother any further Im going to use this tune for mice lol. The cool part was with a 480cc tank I shot about 6 mags ( 10rnd) and the gauge pretty much didnt move lol fun!

A few years ago there was a video on Youtube where some guys across the pond that recorded their attempt to shoot mice with a .30 cal that was tuned to stay under the 12fpe UK limit. It's now marked private so I can't get to it but I think they were using the 45gr JSB which would have put the velocity just under 350fps. Time and again, the mice were able to react to the sound and jump to avoid the pellet. They then switched to a smaller caliber and started taking them out.
Maybe you can still be successful with ~300fps if the report is so soft as to not trigger their reflex, but another thing to keep in mind is that this is right around the minimum velocity necessary to penetrate flesh.

A practical use would may be to chase away some stray dogs, without hurting them (just kidding)
