very cool! Ands a beast of an air rifle.

I felt it an achievement to hit a post at 100yards with the old Feinwerkbau 300s, it would be a cool feeling to hit at 2000yards!

Hmm 91 meters I'm going to give that go with the sig, in a couple days when scopes are set up.
Total beast of a rifle. Pcps are definitely a fantastic concept.

I've been looking for a springer distance.
Found this

Which would a great challange for us springer shooters.

I'm off to look up Feinwerkbau 300s, which is totally new to me and sounds interesting.

That's an awsome rifle.
Hundred yards on post with that sort of power and sight system is a good reason to feel elated.
6 point adjustable trigger!
Do you still have it j-s?
Heres a short video for any one interested

Yes I’ve had a few over the years, I’ll try and always have a 300s in the collection. I’m a big fan of old target guns.
I do use them scoped though - usually stretching them out to 25yards for indoor paper target.
The sig should do well out at 100yards, I read they are a very accurate gun.

Yeah when I saw the power of what you were shooting I thought should probly streach it out a further.
6 fpe is more like 1322 and that would take considerably more skill than sig. Be like lobbing a shell.
So might do a milk bottle cap at 100m.
And still won't consider that as skillful as the 100y shot you did.

2000 yards with an airgun - wow. I know what my eyes saw, but my old brain says it’s a fake.

Could be, but it's a pretty big slug.
Not knowing how much air its dumping it is possible, I guess.
Just sort of thing people would do and not bother with the all the hassel of offials being there.
After j-s mentioned his 100 yard with a low powered rifle I got out with the 1322 this morning and had a crack at 80m.
