Why the Boss is the Boss at Campfussell at 100 plus yds

Fuss, here's my "NUAH" entrance for August. This one is 10/10 -1x... This past Saturday prior to shooting the Speed KYL... .25 Vulcan Tactic, 25.4 grain JSB Kings at 885 FPS, Athlon Midas TAC 6-24x50 scope, APRS3 Mil reticle. ;) Prone position, bipod only, on top of a large boulder I had to climb, overlooking a field, downward about 8 to 9 degrees, breeze right to left, hold off about 0.4 Mil. You can see the shot hit about 0.5 Mil high compared to the crosshairs, right in the brain bucket...

Fuss, totally understand being enamored with the Boss. I just can't get enough of shooting that sucker. Really glad someone else can relate what a great platform it is. Just wish the pellet manufacturers would give us more options. SUPPOSEDLY a .30 Hades will be coming out. I've toyed with the idea of having a slug twist rate barrel made for mine but it's so accurate what's the dif? Gonna try to get out this week & do some 100 yd shooting. Can't wait! Enjoy your Boss
 
The guy I bought mine from used it for EBR. Said the 50+ grain pellets didn't shoot worth diddly. I've been shooting Hatsan Vortex. 30's. They shoot GREAT. Only $12.08 on Amazon! 

I can send you some to try if you want. PM me your info if you want to try them.


Thanks Gerry

I have some Vortex pellets and they shoot great inside 50 yds. Had better luck with the JSB at 100 though!

Will try the Vortex &JSB's @ 100 on Thursday & see if my results are the same. Here's a pic. Black pepper laminate but the colors in the pic aren't great. It's beautiful in the sunlight!

Thanks Dave, It was very windy on my first card with the .25 Royale. So , I only shot 34 yds. When weather cools off and wind dies down I'll get back out there. Was trying several different pellets JSB & Edgun branded JSB

I think it might have potential. I don't shoot well in the wind, so I can't judge the gun by it yet. So, here's my first shots after scoping the rifle. I cleaned the barrel this morning and haven't had a chance to run across chrony yet, but Ken say's it's right at 891-902 fps with the 25 grain Jsb's

Fuss, I tried to do 100 yds yesterday but the property was only 90 yds.! So, I just set up my "dirty bird" targets & practiced on those. I'm sorry, no pictures but long story short, put 3 magazines (27 shots) through the bullseye! Don't think that 10 yds. more will be undoable. I want membership in NUAH but I might be headed for membership in FOOMY (Far Out Of My League). Have a great weekend! There were 2 other shooters there who can back me up (amazing what a little bribery can do).

Haha, thanks for the heads up Gerry. Been brutally hot and humid here in coastal swamp arse NC.

27 shots in the bullseye? Holy Moly, we talking 27 shots under an inch at 90 yds? That's freaking awesome!

I'll have to remember "FOOMY" that's a great one! NUAH has been FOOMY until the BOSS arrived! LOL
