HW100 S shooting 55m and 75 metre targets and the Si Pittaway challenge

[zini 1,939]

Hi lads,

 

It was a nice day today with a bit of a breeze blowing but nothing to keep me in while Im on leave.

 

I decided to calibrate my HW100 S from 10 to 55 metres followed by putting both my shooting ability and the rifle to the test at a lased 75 metres.

 

I even designed a test for others to try if they want. Its called the Si challenge.

 

As you will see we both did pretty ok I think for the first attempt.

 

Here is the footage

 

Enjoy

hi Si

right hoovering done!

you have far too much time on your hands!!!!

 

the challenge looks good,and i shall try it! once i get my HW100 back .

the valve stem was bent from previous owner ? who tried fettling with it.

hence the 4ftlb it was putting out and the inconsistency as well,but i shall take on the challenge and raise you 5yds

 

Well done buddy.

Nice one Si, look forward to having a go at that one. Keep this vids coming

[zini 1,939]

LOL Davy,

 

If you raise me 5 metres and complete the challenge ill try and equal it . Laura says us boys are so competetive .

 

All joking aside buddy adding 5 metres i dont think would of made much difference to the test as the rifle is so good with them RWS Super Field pellets.

 

I might try the rat tomorrow with the 10mm restricter in and see if i can do it at 75 metres within 14 shots.

 

That would be a good test lol.

I new the darkside would get you lads very good shooting Zini

Hi Davy,

 

Yeah will never forget that squizzer buddy, its the best shot i have ever seen in my life with a air rifle.

 

Glad i managed to film you making it too .

 

I havent put the range to it on the new DVD just that it was the longest shot of the session.

 

Ill let you tell if you want . Ive edited it into slow motion and it looks amazing mate, you hear the shot go off then what seems like ages you see the squizzer jump in the air and then goes staright over, then i zoom out which shows the extent of the shot. It never ceases to amaze me what a good shot can do with a sub 12 air rifle in perfect conditions .

 

LJ has just checked the answer machine buddy (I didnt know how to use it ). Ill see if we can change Chris's (Reggaemans) train ticket on Sunday buddy and meet you at HDP. He comes up to mine tonight till Sunday to come shooting with me.

 

Im off this morning to a new farm to recce it for tomorrow buddy 4 miles from me. A lady has a bunny and maggie problem asked me if i could do anything for her Ill see if i can .

 

I spoke to LJ last night about her Ultra and she decided she wanted a bigger scope on it, so the fixed 4x32 has been removed and a Hawke Nite Eye 4-16x50 IR AO is now mounted on it with a new tilting bipod. Am taking it with me this morning to zero and see if any rabbits or maggies want to play .
