[QUOTE="esshup, post: 1012789, member: 11101"] More trigger time is correct. I don't think I'd have enough time in the day if we had 20 hrs of sunlight!! Since last hunting season, I put exactly 10 bullets down the tube in it, all on the same day that I shot those targets. One to get the bore dirty, 2 at 100 yds, 3 at 200, 3 at 300 and one at the steel target at 350 yds. That was strictly a WAG hold-over and it hit 4" high, about 2" right of center. Wind was 10-15 mph from 4:30, but I was able to gauge it (I thought) by the large snowflakes that were coming down. I didn't have enough time to set up the chronograph, so I have no idea of the MV. If memory serves me correctly it is 2800-2850 fps. phorwrath, I could only hope!! This is strictly a hunting gun, so as long as I can drop them into the boiler room of a whitetail I'm happy. [/QUOTE]
