I purchased this gun a couple weeks ago and finally had time to sit down and spend some bench time with it.
I topped it off with an Aeon 6x24x50 30mm sfp scope and it already had the DonnyFL adjuster installed. It is shooting the 18 gr JSB at 940 fps and the 16 gr Hades at 1020 fps.
Tonight I only shot the 18 as that is what I will be using in it from now on. Also , I just received an order of the Varmit Knocker 22.5 gr slugs and they do shoot ok in it at a max fps of 875 but I just prefer the 18 gr JSB as they do the job for me.
It wasn't the best conditions with a light wind that would gust every little bit, probably between 5-10 mph. I shot the gun with the front on a bag and the rear supported only by my shoulder . My heartbeat really showed up at the longer distances.
Shooting started at 10 yards and went to 80 on paper then I shot various yardage out to 120 or so just to plot my aim points on my reticle. I know this target isn't super impressive for some of you but considering the shooting circumstances I was pretty happy with it. Basically all longer groups are right at a quarter size and closer groups well under a dime.
The more I shoot this Veteran the more I like it.
