The few ground squirrels taken were in Montana. The rest of the pests were in my backyard.
I was trying to use up the MKII tins I had since in the past they were
spiraling in the wind and only moving around 803fps, I was only using them for close range shots, ended up taking some 100+ yard shots and noticed in the slomo the MKIIs were flying nicely now in the wind. Ended up running them over the chrono again and now they are averaging 811fps. The extra gain in fps made quite a big difference. Don't know why the increase in fps, I have done nothing to the rifle other than shoot it. I did run the 25gr over the chrono also, they are shooting a few fps slower but no significant change. Now I'm rethinking sticking with the MKIIs.
