Ten dimes date with pretty lady.

I had a spare moment and have been wanting to try my hand at the "ten dimes" target. I pulled the Diana 36, in .177, off the wall and grabbed some JSB 8.44's. I put 10 warm up sighters through her and onto the targets. Its harder than I thought! Especially when you open one group up and get yourself worked up over it. "Breathe", "relax"... you tell yourself. Then onto the next target. Quite satisfying when you put a tight group together. I only had 22 meters, so I'm cheating a bit. Next, I'll try the HW95!

Good shootin and (22m*39.37/36)=24.06 yards so plenty close enough.
 
Thanks Cr4k4! This Diana 36 is one I'll never part with. I've had it a few years now and got it off the flea bay. It was brand new and, if you Google "Diana model 36", it is one of the first videos that pops up. I have installed an ARH GRT spring kit and worked the T05 trigger a bit. Super easy cocking, and the T05 trigger is really nice, light and crisp. It runs close to 14 fpe and is just as easy to shoot as my Benjamin Marauder. I have a HW95 and would be hard pressed to choose between them.
