Farmer rick Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 Rws subs groups... with a few eley subs in the middle to see how they did this session... 50m today. I think the warmer temps aren’t suiting the eley. the rws are doing pretty well in the current conditions. on the final group I changed my trigger pull style, all others are gentle squeeze... this group was more of a decisive pull, interesting results! also a few tests with loading and unloaded bipod... All groups (excluding eley) we sub 18mm or 0.7” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 I had a little play.. I was up high and exposed to some serious crosswinds.. I had a little f class practice. I changed my poa by the noise the wind was making. More noise aim off further etc. I did quite well considering.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One on top of two Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 Me too , I had a little go with the R100 the other day at 150m , even though it was windy it was great timing the gusts . But all in all very happy. . I do know that all 10 shots would have resulted in a clean cardboard target bunny kill . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Rick , I forget to mention that although it was windy it was 5- 8 mph at my 6 o clock . So NOT as challenging as you would think with the wind calls .

One on top of two Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 Cheers Rick , I will say my little anni is fantastic with R50 / R100 it’s just a shame there soooo expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmer rick Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 What’s the cost from your local rfd? I was going to try the r50 next and persuade my local rfd to get some in for me! I was pretty happy with the rws sub results today... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farmer rick Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 Im Still having major issues with the match grades going supersonic, I was shooting with friend the other day and he said it sounds like hmr not 22!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One on top of two Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 There £256 /1000 that’s for either the R50 or R100 the R50 are sub sonic ( just ) but because there so consistent they can be that close , the R100 are high velocity and do give a crack , however as I have explained in the past , I use the R100 for taking cheeky foxes out of the horse paddocks when we have fouls running about . And so I fitted my rimmy with a wildcat panther which is rated to .22 Hornet , and so does quieten the little buggers down some what .

Farmer rick Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 They are pricey!

I was worried my Sak mod was the issues, so tried my hardy 22 cf mod on the eley subs (supersonic) it was worse 🤦♂️;) did you try the r50 at 150m?

Yes but there working well and Truly there limits, , in my rifle they will hold a group at 100 m out to 115- 120m max and then they really are in the lap of the gods Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One on top of two Posted March 14, 2021 Report Share Posted March 14, 2021 Too be honest Rick I don’t know , I tried them at dis and wrote them off , I maybe should have given them a better go , but I was comparing everything to the R100 . I will test them at some point in the week if I get chance , we’re starting to drill at the end of the week ( weather permitting) so I will put the rimfire in the tractor.

Opted to stay in around some woodland for a bit of shelter from the wind and it was raining at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your timing on the wind is very, very good. I must get out with mine again soon. Good shooting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted March 15, 2021 Report Share Posted March 15, 2021 I had 2 eley match go supersonic yesterday and 3 that didn't fire.. 2 of the 3 did fire on the second firing and the other wouldn't fire at all. This was the first time in the weeks of testing that I had any crackers with the eley match and them not firing. Same batch..!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the first time in the weeks of testing that I had a crackers with the eley match and them not firing. Same batch..!! Neil , this is the exact reason I stoped using them last year. I bought 3 bricks worth after a very successful couple of weeks playing them to the point I could almost shut my eyes at 50m and score a bench rested 100 any day of the week in my anni MSR rifle , then the last brick accuracy dropped of a cliff without any logical explanation, I would point out that all three bricks where same batch numbers too. that was the point I restarted my old love affair with RWS. As to why I can offer no rationale explanation , I just know that I have lost confidence in Eley as a whole , even the tenex I have shot has been hit and miss . back in the day I was an Eley sponsored shooter when they where hands down the best of the best . A title I feel they have given away over the past 10 years . shame 😢 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No i deer Posted March 15, 2021 Report Share Posted March 15, 2021 🤔 Target ammo is new to me as you know.. They were doing so well.. Hopefully I don't get too many as I like the accuracy.. It's gave me great confidence again In the calibre I like most. I can live with the odd cracker but not firing is a pain. Incidentally the very first shot yesterday was a cracker.. it surprised me..!! I will try a few more top branded ammo yet before I settle 100 percent on one. If I can better the eley match that would be quite something. The R ammo certainly works well in your Annie 🤩 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
