Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Air Guns 100 yards, plus

Yesterday I took a crack at 100 yards.
This is my regular shooting spot, I've lazered the distance before so I know how where 100 yards is. This is what it looked like looking back to my truck, I know it's hard to see the bench, it's right behind the truck. I took these pictures with my iPhone. (wish it had zoom)

And it's closer than it seems.
Here's the can with over 10 shots through it.

After checking out the can I looked up and past it and thought, let's try 110 yards.

The center stake is what I was aiming for, it's about 10 yards past the can.
A light breeze started, about 2-3 mph coming from my back at 4:00 o'clock. I SWAGed (Scientific Wild A$$ Guess) the Kentucky windage and let it go. And I made the shot. I was more excited about making this one shot than all of the ones in the can.

Left side, just below the wire.
And this is the gun that did it. Nothing fancy, a gas rammed HW80/R1 in .177 mounted with a Hawke Sport HD 3-9X40.

I already have an idea to try out next weekend, if I get a chance.
