Very nice. 👍
I'd be stoked with 4 stacked like that.
Wouldn't call it off, more of a: now that I've done it, no reason not to do it again.
Great shooting

Nice shooting Kiwi! 😉
Walk quietly, but carry a big stick.

Very nice!

Probably worth framing that for the man cave, or get it set in resin as a paper weight.

Do you use a single shot loader, or was that using a magazine?

Haha, if it were 50m outdoors I would definitely be framing it!

It was done whilst using the Orion magazines, although I did back the springs off two full turns a little while back as I suspected they may have been damaging the pellets.  It was super easy, just undid the screw (not quite fully), lifted the rotary section carefully until it was free to rotate, backed off the two turns and then re-tightened the screw.  

Still more than enough tension to move all of the pellets and also easier to load.

With an O.D of 0.229" and pellet size .22 that was impressive.
I estimate a mean radius of 0.005" or 0.127mm.

Powering down for accuracy is very interesting.

Well done shooting less than 1 MOA or 1/4 inch at 25 yards.

I look forward to that combination at 50 yards.

Mark, you should put up your 177 ASP20 results.  

They were probably more impressive - multiple superbly tight groups from a springer!  A lot more effort to achieve in my view.
