Diana 56TH 177 hits the orchard

Recommended Posts

Haven't been to one of my favourite shoots for a while, and was asked by the owners of the estate to start controlling the rabbit population once more, so having recently got the 56TH retuned and extremely accurate, it was up early and into it, these ranged from 25 to 66m with the majority 50ish. 

The 56TH excels at long range work in the orchards...

Diana 56th 177 shooting jsb heavies 

tuned to shoot these at 875/880 fps 

it's capable of higher but spiralling occurs at 915, so tuned down slightly and it's just right, flat shooting and accurate for head shots to a good distance.

Nice shooting Rob :good:

                Buddy if your rifle is producing 880 ft/sec with the 10.34 grain JSB Heavies .177 caliber she is producing 17.78 ft/lbs.

                A lot of people state 18ft/lbs is the perfect muzzle energy for the .177 caliber ?

Again, top shooting mate.
