So i finally got to shoot the new "toy" and man what a good time it was, i was hunched over the rifle for almost 5 hours strait, and almost forgot to chrono and take pictures.
At first i shot "heat" / much hammer for the heavier ammo, and things performed quite nice, so dispatched of some MRD pellets and some Beasts, and it was generally a very good time.
Then i tried the 13.43 grain KO slugs,,,,,,,,, and then i almost shot a tin of those CUZ,,,,,, damn.
5 shot group, aimed at that previous "dent" in a old fridge door, all 5 slugs went in the same hole, and did not even make it that much bigger ( i am shooting 50 M here )
I then backed off the hammer spring a little to shoot lighter 10.6 and 10.4 grain H&N Barracuda and JSB heavies, and this was also quite enjoyable and i almost shot a tin of the JSB heavies too,,,,,,,, CUZ,,,,,, damn.
5 shot group, and you can probably guess which one was shot #5
The first day shooting experience compared to my FX Maverick,,,,,, as opposite as you can get without going completely off the chart.
Also no doubt what gun i will be picking up for my next session, and next time i might very well give the slugs a spin at 100 M
And mind you this is shot with a rifle assembled wrong in the factory and with parts made wrong and so as a result the gun barely have 5 CCM plenum, so when i get those proper parts, and i can get the 10 shot spread under 10 i am sure i can shoot even better / the gun can make me appear to be a even better shot.
I am wondering if i can find a pellet / slug that do not shoot decent in this rifle, the 10.3 Ko slugs even do okay, a whole lot better than the scatter gun grouping i get using them in the Maverick.
For sure later today i am ordering more JSB heavies, CUZ damn,,,,,, they work good, and i am already in the market for more of the heavy Ko slugs, even if the 12.5 and 15 grain NSA i also have a stash of fly just fine. I hope NSA understand that i must of course support the local guys when it make sense to do so, everyone should support their local,,,, whatever when it make sense.
