It wasn't raining last night so I eagerly went out to the farm with the new Snowpeak M60B to shoot some rats. I have mounted my Pard008LRF on this gun and did quick zero check at my POA 10-30 yards with the Hades 16gr. The new video "Snowpeak M60B First Shoot" will be out tomorrow on my YT channel. I was able to test and find out the Hades 16gr was the most accurate out of 4 pellets type/weight.
It was almost 7pm when I arrived at the farm. I quickly setup my table and had the target box out at 10 yards. First shot with my holdover hit nicely on the target. I then check the rest of my holdover aim out to 30 yards. I was ready to blast some rats with this new gun pushing the Hades out at 957fps, 32ft.lb.
First shot was at 22 yards and I tagged the unwilling volunteer square in the head. It twitched for a bit and quickly expired. M60B had its first kill.
In total I shot 39 big fat rats and collected 20 in 3 hours. Some of the rats were inside some concrete and some ran back into the holes and some were in the cow pan area which the workers would clean up the next day. I could have shot more if the backdrops were safe and if cows were not in the way.
I noticed the rats got more damaged and bled more with the Snowpeak than with my HW100. An extra 4 ft.lb was evident in the channel wounds in these rats. I can't imagine what my Impact MK2 with 25gr, 52ft.lb would do to these rats, lol.
Video to follow next week. Cheers.
