177 owners chime in let’s see your groups @ 100+ yards

I have kept the Vulcan #2 in 177 down to about 48 yards, Its pretty much all the distance I can shoot even with my 22 and 25 , Right now the 8 gr polymag shoots very good out of the Vulcan, I have not found a pellet it didn't like, It even likes the JSB 13.43 gr pellets .

When I bought the 177 I was thinking its a 50 yard gun, But I maybe proven wrong if I can get out to the pit and try it at 100 yards,

I would like to see what you guys come up with, Include the weather with your shoot group

hello

a week ago i did group with my RAPTOR3 mini 177 its pretty small bullpup you can find .... super compact ... barrel Lother walther only 300mm

grouping very impressive !! 

i have videos in my instrgram account " pcpairguns " if you're interest to see .. 

i did group 5 shots in 110 yard ! before i make this grouping i was like ... there is no way to group in 177 .. but results made my jaw fall ! ... honestly there was no wind .. only a little gust wind cause 1 pellet to open the group... but the rest under 26mm !

its 100 Kuwait files coin " 26mm "

My .177 long-range air rifle project happened before I did much photo documentation, so forgive me having no photos. Nevertheless, think I can provide pertinent and interesting insight on the subject.

I was a .22 caliber Shin Sung Career 707 rifle devotee for somewhere between several and many years before deciding to find out how a .177 Career might compare. These monsters require considerable (de)tuning to even attain a bell-curve power-band, and therefore seriously explore their fine potentials.

This being before extra-heavy .177 pellet offerings from JSB, I concentrated on the 16 grain Eun Jin Korean pellets of considerably less-fine quality. Unlike the .22 Careers, I found the .177 did not maintain 100 yard accuracy proportional to its 50 yard results; so much so that I got NO 100 yard groups even worthy of mention. The following excerpt is from Airgun Chronicles; notice the 12-21--07 notation about the single best group 50 yard I'd acheived (that still holds that title even now). 

16gr EunJin, 2400 PSI fill, 27 shot power-band- Low= 937, Hi= 977, ES= 40, SD= 5, Average= 955 FPS / 32.4 FP

Unless otherwise noted group averages below were shot with 16 gr Eun Jins at about 30 F/P.

3/11/05 Three consecutive five-shot groups at 50 yards averaged .58” in still winds.

3/17/05 Six consecutive five-shot groups at 50 yards with Premiers averaged .69”.

3/24/05 Four consecutive five-shot groups at 50 yards averaged .62” in light winds.

10/7/06 Five consecutive five-shot groups at 50 yards averaged .67” c-t-c in still winds.

7/15/06 Eight consecutive five-shot groups at 50 yards averaged .59” c-t-c.

1/21/07 Fifteen consecutive five-shot groups at 50 yards averaged .62”. The best group measured .17” c-t-c (the smallest 50 yard group in all my airgun testing!).

8/26/06 Six consecutive five-shot groups at 50 yards with 10.5 Premiers averaged .64” c-t-c.

9/10/07 Ten consecutive five-shot groups at 50 yards averaged .59” c-t-c.

9/13/08 Six consecutive five-shot groups at 50 yards averaged .52” c-t-c.

All I have for a serious group is the first picture at 50yd, middle group five shots .317ctc with a factory AA S500 and JSB 10.3g pellets. The second picture is a rushed 100yd group of ten shots with the same, but tuned S500 and NSA 15.5g slugs. It was 5" across, with 8 inside 3.5". I'm sure that with more practice and wind flags I could get it close to MOA using the slugs.
