What yardage?

I shot a squirrel, around 16 yards or so. H/N 8ish grain pellet, HW30 @ 5.5fpe.

 

[intenseaty22]

At 28ish yards, I took down a squirrel with my HW95 in .177 shooting the JSB Hades at around 9fpe. Shot it in the shoulder & the pellet stopped short of exiting the buttocks after having pierced every vital organ on it’s way there.

Predador Polymags, if they can shoot accurately out of your pellet gun, stop, don’t collect $200, just phenomenal results at any caliber.

For Sub 12fpe guns, give the Ballistic Precision Makos Slugs a go. Never seen anything like it.

Emu, I have a Wildcat at about 62 lbs with Heavy JSBs. Did you recover any of you pellets from the coyote or javelina to examine, did the hold together, penetrate the skulls? I have a thermal scope coming this week and want to do some rural city coyote hunts.
Thank, Keith

I recovered the pellets of all deer. Almost no deformación. No expansión at all. Not even the one of the skull.

Beat up old .25 Condor with 48g slugs 90fpe. Racoon at 50yds head shot, dropped in his tracks. Decent size 25" nose to arse.

How far does a deer run and what kind of blood trail do they leave when chest shot with a 35cal airgun? They generally have 30 seconds of battery life left in them if you don’t shock them to the ground with a big boomer.

FX Hybrid Slugs .30 cal at 930 fps/85 fpe. Dropped a groundhog at 66 yards with a bodyshot. Full passthrough, and the slug was recovered.

First deer ran away about 50 mts. No blood Trail at all.

Second deer walked away 30 mts and came down. No blood traíl.

Third deer with the head shot was dead before getting to ground.

You can watch almot all shots to these animals in my hunting videos on these threads.
