100m+ springer challange.

I will use HW98 .177

It's only shooting sub 12 ft/lb so I'm going to need good conditions.
I don't have any high powered springers.

This sounds good, I will see how I go.

I shot a rabbit at 138 m a couple of weeks ago. Dead calm night, one shot landed so close, but rabbit didn't know which way to go and second shot clocked it.

I was sighting in my D54 at 30y open sights today and I was also thinking about a challenge, an open sights springer challenge….
But let’s let this one play out first 👍🏻

Sorry Nunga didn't see your question till rereading page. You can use what ever cal springer you like.
Apart from the compition and fun aspect I'm just curious to see what can be acbieved distance wise.

That was a lesson in humility. Filled the vcan with water, lined up first shot and the can went flying. Pretty stoked with meself packed everything away walked down to can. No hole? Dent in bottom of can but it was long and not pellet like. Had me stumped and couldn't show that as a hit.
Went back set up next shot missed, 2nd shot creased the left side of can (it was empty from being on the ground) so I went down to see if it left a mark. Didn't seem too. Then I noticed the line across the top of post going to can. Turned the can around and it matched the dent. Skimmed the post top. Couldn't really call it hit.

I'm assuming the line to left is after the first shot.
So went back and fired another 4 shots. 2 hit just the right on the batten. 1 you can see the other is higher. One I heard hit the tree behind so must have went left then finally

That thinner can is much harder target by far. Didn't think it would make that much differance. It certainly knocked my ego back into place.
I'm sticking to beer cans you better shooters can use thin cans if you want but not nessary.

Hell yeah. That sig was sig pulled some pretty strait lines when we were on that 100m range.
Handent thought of 362,that could be pretty good with the right pellet, was accurate at medium ranges.
Would the co2 rifle have the distance?
Seems to be preety lethal in your hands at mid ranges?

I also take note that you are using 14 grain pellets. must be in .22 correct? So you wouldnt mind if i crack open my .22 as well?
