You don't have to convince anyone here Kruz. We are all enjoying seeing the capabilities unfolding.
Yea, I can't stand the ignorance of those "air guns are toys" people either. |

You could film it with the sytong and it would show the range as well.
Use it as a camera, stand behind your shooting position showing gun, then put sytong down on bench and whike still filming, show the range and then if you get light going, it'll show you hit the target. |

You can always video it on your phone. You can use my shooting channel on youtube to post it. If interested i can go over it with you. It is easier then you think

80km round trip to get to town for a card Pauly. If I'm in town before I get the shot I'll do that. Let me put ph near target too.
You can put it on your site Nunga, I certainly won't be uploading it anywhere as general viewing. All assuming I make the shot again. But I'm pretty confident and least know where I'm aiming at to get strait on target. Still better finish light set up before anything else. |

Here she is. Master piece of engineering, that will undoughtly have you machinests rolling around laughing.
I can blow this and the plate will move and create the connection. It has enough weight to hold the plate in place. The wind here at moment be around 5+km. Direct into wind it trips every time. Side on it just sits in postion. I'll charge up a battery and give it the power test. But should be fine if none of the old wires are dud. ![]() ![]() |

She's a goer.
Thought about it and was going to get the flasher unit out of an old van here, but had to pull the instrament panel to get to it. Couldn't be bothered. Its a simple unit and pretty easy to make. You better set up ppl could make a very effient one very easy. Oh that cardboard will give four back drops.

Hmmm if this is sensitive enough I could possible extend the range.
Only reason I stopped was it would t puncture a can any further away. Hmmmmmmmmmm |

Good stuff Kruza, I always look forward to your posts.

Kruza, your 97 is a .22, what pellet have you been using, fps and FPE?

Definitely mercs. Its got to have the power. Truthfully I'd love to see the gamo do some insanely far shot. Be chuckling for weeks at the gamo haters on that. Dude you got a sig. I had a sig. That's what I'd be using. I honestly believe the sig shoots heaps accurate enough and it's got the power to blitz my gun. Use em both. Wild west coast weather be your biggest hurdle I imagine. Money part ends in 5 days? , but if that's not a issue, anytime after that is still a great time to post a hundy plus on any gun. |

Kruza if you want to double check with the chrony I can semd it up to you.
Got the sig out for 5 quick shots. No target but a clump of dirt in the field next door at 120m, wind was swirling southerly but the dust of pellet poi was a bit all over the place. Neibours over the back have just sold so I need to check in with the new guys if I can still shoot hares over there. |

All good on the chrono bb. Im not fussed data for myself.
I've rather enjoyed getting away from facts with this gun and just learning its feel. I know it has enough power to drop a hare out at hundred. That do me for now. Same with scope, haven't really used app. Shoot and record where it is on scope according to my eye. Be doing 60m to 90m in 5m intervals after finished mucking around with distance shooting. Probly 2m intervals closer to 90m. A still day would see that sig humming. Those 177 definitely arnt going to behave in the wind over distance. You have a heavy cal rifle, what's that like for distance? |
