[QUOTE="preventec47, post: 1644244, member: 22159"] Seriously I feel like I do some long range .177 pellet work to about 110 yards. That referenced Creedmore pellet weighs about 8gr but I have found a 16gr .177 pellet with far better BC and I would say the drop at 110 yds is about one third of the light pellets. I try to harass crows that are molesting and stalking my baby ducks across the pond. About one out of 15 shots I actually hit a crow. The pellets I use are "Exact Beast Diablo" 16.2gr. For a brake barrel magnum pellet gun this feels like 1000 yards. I don't know the muzzle velocity but the heavy pellet takes it sub sonic and it is of course a lot quieter than light weight pellets super sonic which sounds like a 22 rimfire. I use an 8X AO scope and I would guess that I am shooting about 6 or 8 inch groups at 110 yds. Shooting over water is really fantastic because you can shoot at the far shoreline and dial your scope in by watching the splashes etc. [/QUOTE]
