Hello @RanchibiBeen working with NSA 20.2gr slugs dialing them in for accuracy and find them more forgiving than the NSA 17.5gr by just a little bit. You can see my scope adjustments above then hit Thomas's bullseye when POI seemed correct. The second pic is 4 shots after that bullseye. Slugs are fun to shoot and remind me of springers, it's really up to the shooter to ensure accuracy which in my case is, well, inconsistent at best just like my springers and me....

Thank you Thomas! Slugs definitely need lots of practice and attention to detail when shooting them and I enjoy that sort of journey although the results are hit and miss like golf...
...guess I'm a sucker for disappointment!

, but haven't given up on them...wallet kinda has though
Full value wind(Reading the Wind Book, so i finally understand what that means) and 24 X's ...Sweet Shooting Tim!
That little bit of red helps a lot on the 3.0
Yes Mike, it was some seat puckering moments holding that far off but seeing a hole appear in or close to the bull sure made me relax some. Here are the scores from Tuesday’s match.

Events - Meeker Sportsman Club 1st N50 match of the outdoor season, Marion, OH
Got cabin fever? Are you sick of winter? Tired of being cooped up inside as much as I am? Well join us this Saturday 4/6/2024 for our first outdoor 50 yard benchrest match of the season. Its a N50 event where air guns shoot side by side with .22 rimfire rifles. Registration begins at 10 and the...
I can see this as a "shooting groups " target or pellet on pellet target as the poa is always visible . but i see no difference in single bull shots .
Thanks but much of the credit goes to the consistency of my Thomas HPX. It’s the first and only rifle that I’ve owned that does NOT throw a single flier and if there is a miss it’s all on me.
Take some credit..lol After all,, you are the one able to see the hold and risk taking the shot
Mike! Thank you kind sir! These are NSA 20.2 .2175's. Ammo is definitely a drain on the ole wallet....Nice groups @Ranchibi
What size are you using with the slugs?
Looks great so far...look forward to the updates!!
I didn't have enough tylenol for slugs
I am going to order more of these SOON! Thanks Mike. These cards were hung and shot horizontally and the vertical control of impact is where Mike’s rifles really shine. The vertical control is so precise yet my misses were often vertically because the idiot behind the trigger thought he had a handle on the (in your face) wind and it bites me EVERY time I try to shoot that condition.
