N50 at 100y with slugs

That is amazing shooting at 100 yards. What caliber? Gun? Conditions? But regardless that is some incredible shooting.

That’s incredible! It must be so satisfying to see shot after shot going into those little circles like that, and at 100 yards too. Just wow. Thanks for sharing.

Jimmy’s right.
234-9X is a good score in 3-6 mph wind at 50Y with an air gun, but really good at 100 yards!
I haven’t tried shooting the N50 cards at 100 yards yet.
If I get a good day, I’m going to give it a go.
I’m sure after seeing my 100 yard scores, I will quickly come back to 50Y.

Great shooting Mike - as usual!
I'll be trying my swaged slugs out of SURELY today at different longer distances. I'm so excited that I woke up at 4:30 this morning and couldn't go back to sleep, LOL!

Thanks…a good slug is able to bring a modicum of the precision element to 100y BR with air. It would be nice to see 100y BR shot with air on a regular sized target rather than the enormous ones needed for pellets. I think all 25 of these could just about fit in the same real estate of one bull of the typical 100y pellet targets. Would open up a lot more ranges to be used without the expense of crafting custom target frames that would never be used any other time.

Impressive Mike!, kinda confirms your point of a “some luck involved” for consistent scores at 100yds with “pellets”. Not with slugs though!

Mike,
I agree that it would be nice to have a "reasonable" sized target that was similar to the RMAC/EBR targets. Maybe print just to the 7 or 8 ring. It could be the default target for 100yd slugs and great for practice with pellets.
I have never shot slugs, but on the occasions where I "practice" for RMAC, I use the USBR target. I figure that if you can't keep all of your shots on the 2" outer ring you will not be in the running at an actual match (assuming halfway decent conditions). If I miss with one or two shots it may not be the end of the world... just have to throw in a few extra 10's. I only "practice" a few times per year, so I think those who shoot often should not have a problem with the smaller target.
