One For The 97

[risingfriend 1,042]

After not shooting well with my 97kt at the thl meet, i lost faith in myself using it so decided to put it through its paces on a few plinking sessions this week between work, the first few hours i couldnt group for toffees ,now i had questioned that a week before the meet i had taken a coil off to drop the power as the rifle had bedded in after a couple of 6 tins through her and was running close to the limit, thought maybe i had fooked something up so a strip and relube again i started to plink.

Only thing i have changed is the scope is slightly further forward and bingo hitting 15mm knockdown crows for fun. faith restored finished work this afternoon and thought i take a look around a permission i have 5 mins from my house a typically hasnt rained for 3 weeks and it chucked it down. took refuge in a field shelter and waited it out not much around. but spotted one on top of the connifer hedge a lased 32yards and a standing shot cracked the noggin and not so much as a flap.

so happy again for now LOL

I had a grueler a couple of weeks ago shooting rabbits in long grass, just couldn't whack one no matter how I tried, turned out to be hay feever playing f**k up with my parallax, nearly hung up my guns and took up chess

No not that bad mate But to be honest i was dissapointed with the three doughnuts i had and couldnt work out what the fook was going on i think they sailed clean over the targets. Dont get me wrong rivi course is tricky to say the least mate wind and all that but i knew what the rifle was capable of so thought i was the problem

Great respect for an unsupported standing head shot at 32yd Arron.

I got 3 donuts aswell putting safety off before im on target. and then touching the really light trigger by accident bad practice on my part but lesson learnt I suppose.

im going to smash the next hft allover next time I get a go on one, probably at the next meet :laugh:

Jeez, nice shot. I find them in my conifers at the back but can't take any shots due to the neighbor at the back
