mark williams 7,551 Posted February 16, 2020 Report Share Posted February 16, 2020 Well prior to attempting a very rough zero in these strong winds I gave the barrel a thorough good cleaning,- she was ready for it to. With a spotless barrel I tried to get some sort of zero into her but the winds really did prevent this from happening - just far too strong. Anyway lads, here's her 1983 looks, she's only just under 12 ft/lbs, ( oh i`ll watch her ) she has a lovely shot cycle and had she been on an indoor range today I`m convinced she would have really performed well. A nice still day needed next to close down that zero to a very tight 5p size from 27yds zero out to 40yds +. FAP pellets used and the trajectory was very flat / hard hitting for .22 cal. ( 13.43 g ) atb. Mark. 5 Quote Link to post

pistols-303 2 Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 Stunning condition, my all time fave springer, Im on the lookout for one myself, all i shoot is Springers for both pest control and target, much more rewarding shooting these than puffers in my opinion. 2 Quote Link to post

Dervburner 2,549 Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 Good shooting Mark. I took my v-Mach 99 out today. Didn’t see any live quarry present, but had a bit of a plink at what turned out to be 41 paces. Aim point was a knot in a recently pruned tree from leaning on the back of my truck, 5 shots. All shots were a bit high as I don’t have many aim points on this old scope. Just went for group size and was fairly happy for the range and conditions. Quote Link to post
