I made a tuning target to help tune my Skout Evo for what speed to use with my 22 Cal Dead Center 22.07 grain pellets. I made it planning on shooting at 50 yards but the wind was gusting up to 20 mph at my 50 yard range. I have 25 yard range that is pretty well protected from the wind so I tried that one out for today's test. Each row has5 shots for each circle. The scope was adjusted for that row and the not changed until I shot a different row. I had the scope adjust for the top of the circle with the tiny white dot to shoot the center of the big circle. That way I always had a good aiming point. I have a tuner I made that fits over the moderator on the gun. It has 12 positions. I only used the number 1 position of the first two circles of each row and number 6 for the last two circles. Each scoring circle has the info for FPS, Spread, STD Dev and a T number for the tuner position used. Plan on going higher with the next Tuning card to get up 1020 FPS.
Todays test showed me I need to shoot farther away so the groups aren't so tight to get better results.
The groups were just to much the same to make a decision on which speed to use. A 100 test on a wind free day should show some good results.
Which row would you choose for the best????
